Resumen

Seismic rehabilitation using Carbon Fiber Reinforcement Polymer CFRP is more often used worldwide. CFRP jacketing is the most common layout for columns and walls, however installing the CFRP sheet as diagonal ties increase shear capacity to walls instead of jacketing procedures, besides less CFRP materials is used reducing the cost to the retrofit work. It is know that CFRP sheets can be debonded from the concrete or masonry surface causing that the sheets will not develop its tensile capacity. Then CFRP anchors are introduced. It is presented the behavior of CFRP sheets as diagonal ties working even though sliding and CFRP anchors which attach the diagonal ties to concrete base and top of the masonry wall. The diagonal ties work at full tensile capacity even though the debonding and buckling presented under compression forces. CFRP anchors also provided a resistance capacity against sliding. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
