| Summary: | Structural behaviour of designed beams depend greatly on the design analysis and construction methods. Due to natural contents of the materials, noncompliance with specifications and workmanship, cracks may occur early in reinforced concrete beams (RC Beams). As such, the residual strength ability of the designed beams may or may not be reliable. This laboratory study is intended to seek and measure the strength behaviour of a few reinforced beams (RC Beams) which are tested under applied loads until the appearance of cracks. Treatment of cracks were conducted by using bonding agent via injection of epoxy resin or any known agent. The repair process should not only eliminates unsightly appearance but also to restore strength of the damaged beams. Through the observations, the residual strength varied for beams on application of using different type of bonding agents. The strength is also dependent upon the time period after the treatment of cracks |
