| Abstract: | This paper provides a mathematical model and numerical example of composite T-section composed of a concrete plate and a timber beam strengthened at the bottom tension side with a carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) strip. Analysis is provided in accordance with the European standards for timber, steel and concrete structures. The tensile strength of the carbon strip as well as the compressive strength of the concrete plate are higher than the bending strength of the timber beam, therefore it is convenient to use such composition of material to gain a higher load bearing capacity. It has been shown that the inclusion of CFRP strip reinforcement on the increase of load carrying and bending stiffness capacity was not as high as expected. On the other hand, we realized the importance of variety of material grade and geometrical properties combinations between sub-components which can significantly improve load bearing capacity and stiffness of composed beam. Furthermore, the CFRP strip contribution to the bending resistance and stiffness of the element is presented as a function of the fastener spacing intervals between concrete plate and timber beam. |
