Specification for Carbon and Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Materials Made by Wet Layup for External Strengthening of Concrete and Masonry Structures
Also Known As:
ACI 440.8-13 is a standard that outlines the specifications for the use of carbon and glass fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) materials in the wet layup process. The purpose of this standard is to provide guidelines for the external strengthening of concrete and masonry structures using these FRP systems.
The standard covers the requirements for the materials used in the wet layup process, including the carbon and glass fiber-reinforcing fabrics and the resin matrix. It specifies the properties and characteristics that these materials must possess in order to effectively strengthen the structures.
Additionally, the standard provides guidelines for the application of these FRP systems to the concrete or masonry substrate. It outlines the preparation and surface conditions necessary for successful bonding, as well as the recommended application procedures.
