Abstract
This paper presents the results of a shear test on a reinforced concrete beam retrofitted with modularized steel plates. A total of five retrofitted concrete beams with various span-depth ratios as a variable were fabricated and tested. A companion beam without retrofitting was used as the control specimen. The results of this experiment confirmed that the method proposed in this study improved the shear performance by approximately 1.8 times compared with the non-retrofitted reinforced concrete beam. The test results indicate that the shear retrofitting method using modularized steel plates can be effective in retrofitting the concrete beams, resulting in improvement in the strength, stiffness and deformations.
