Description
Mohamed El Aghoury and co-authors study how carbon fiber strips can strengthen steel beams in this 2024 paper. The beams have corrugated webs, a wavy middle section that resists buckling. Such beams are used more often in steel structures. Most past strengthening work dealt with flat web beams instead.
A computer model was first checked against earlier lab tests by the same team. Then 105 beam variants were tested in the model. Web shape, strip length, strip thickness, and strip layout were all varied. Strengthening raised shear capacity by up to about three quarters. Strips placed on both sides of the web worked best. The authors also give a design method to predict capacity for strengthened beams.
