Behaviour of corroded shear-critical reinforced concrete beams repaired with NSM CFRP rods

Experimental results show that both corroded and control deep beams repaired only in bending failed due to shear mode of failure (diagonal tension failure), while corroded and control beams repaired in both bending and shear failed due to concrete crushing. The test results also showed that the corrosion of both longitudinal and transversal reinforcement hardly modified the mechanical response of deep beams.
