Abstract
Abstract This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of para-aramid fiber sheet in enhancing the flexural performance of reinforced concrete (RC) beams made with Environmental-Friendly Recycled Coarse Aggregates. The experimental program examines the effect of substitution ratio of recycled aggregates (0%, 30%, and 50%), type of para-aramid fiber sheet (KN 206 RFL and KN AA070-RFL), and the method of fiber sheet attachment (bottom and bottom-side). The test results show that the ultimate load-carrying capacity of RC beams reinforced with para-aramid fiber sheet attached to the bottom and side parts increased by 23.9% compared to the unreinforced specimens. The main findings of the study include the identification of the BU-type attachment method as the most effective method for enhancing the flexural performance of reinforced concrete beams. The comparison of the experimental results with analytical predictions showed that the nominal flexural strength obtained from the experimental study was lower than the analytical predictions, but the ductile capacity of the specimens indicated the effectiveness of para-aramid fiber sheet reinforcement in EFRCA RC beams for flexural strength. The study highlights the potential of using para-aramid fiber sheet in improving the flexural behavior of RC beams made with recycled aggregates, offering a sustainable solution for the construction industry.
