Bonded steel plating for strengthening concrete structures m d.
It has been used extensively in the uk since 1975 when the m5 quinton interchange was strengthened.
It is this bond which is responsible for transfer to stresses from steel to concrete and thereby providing composite action of steel and concrete in r c c.
The bond develops due to setting of concrete on drying which results in gripping of the steel bars.
Plate bonding is a well established process used to strengthen bridges and other structures originally using steel plates applied to plane concrete surfaces using epoxy resin adhesive and bolted fixings the plate bonding technique is used to provide additional resistance to bending improve load capacity or reduce deflections.
Guideline specification for external bonding of steel plates to concrete by injection of structural epoxy adhesives general.
The technique of strengthening concrete structures by bonding steel plates to the external faces using epoxy adhesive was pioneered in the late 1960s.
Most applications have been to increase flexural strength or stiffness by bonding plates to the soffits or top surfaces of beams and slabs.
