Abstract

  • This paper reports a set of experimental results for continuous unidirectional carbon

    fibre-reinforced concrete beams. The fibers are embedded at different layers in the

    tension side of the beam below the neutral axis. All together nine concrete beams

    were constructed and tested, three of which contained no reinforcement. The carbon

    fibre-reinforced concrete beam load-deflection results are presented graphically for

    three beams with one-layer, one with two-layers and two with four-layers of

    continuous unidirectional fibres. The maximum deflections of the reinforced beams

    are compared with those of plain concrete beams.
