Subject: FRP Retrofit
Can somebody point me to a good source of info for using FRP “strips” to reinforce existing concrete?
Specifically I’m interested in strengthening an existing flat plate slab to add a new penthouse on top. The addition will also require a large number of 12” to 14” square penetrations for new mechanical units. I need some ballpark figures for a cost estimate ASAP.
I would appreciate any insight.
Thanks,
