AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON FLEXURAL BEHAVIOR OF RC BEAMS STRENGTHENED WITH NSM REINFORCEMENT Woo-Tai JUNG1, Young-Hwan PARK2, Jong-Sup ABSTRACT: This study presents the results of experiments performed on RC (Reinforced Concrete) beams strengthened with NSM(Near Surface Mounted) reinforcement. A total of 6 specimens have been tested. The specimens can be classified into EBR(Externally Bonded Reinforcement) specimen and NSM reinforcements specimens. Two NSM specimens with space variables were strengthened with 2 CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) strips. Experimental results revealed that NSMspecimens used CFRP reinforcements moreefficiently than the EBR specimens. Even if CFRP crosssection areas of NSM specimens have 30%,50% of EBR Specimen, the strengthening effect of NSMspecimens is superior to EBR specimen. NSM specimens with space variables showed that thstrengthening effect of the specimen with narrow space is slightly increased as compared to thespecimen with wide spaceu KEYWORDS: carbon fiber reinforced polymer, externally bonded CFRP reinforcements, nearsurface mounted CFRP reinforcements, strengthening 1. INTRODUCTION Among the various strengthening techniques that have been developed and applied to strengthendeteriorated RC structures, a number of applications using FRP reinforcements have significantly increased recently. FRP reinforcements are bonded to concrete surfaces by adhesives but frequently experience debonding failure at the interface between FRP reinforcements and concrete. Most research, to date, has focused on investigating the strengthening effects and failure modes of EBR system The problem of premature failure of EBR system may be solved by increasing the interface between FRP and concrete. Using this principle, the NSM system has been introduced recently. The NSM system for concrete structure using steel reinforcement already began in 1940s. However, the corrosion of the steel reinforcement and the poor bonding performance of the grouti
