Kajian terhadap keupayaan struktur dalam menahan beban letupan menggunakan Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) adalah sangat terhad. Dalam kajian ini, satu analisis terhadap keupayaan FRP bagi menahan beban letupan dilakukan. Tujuan analisis ini adalah untuk memperolehi hubungan antara kekuatan FRP, bilangan lapisan ketebalan FRP dan susunatur FRP bagi menahan kekuatan sesuatu beban letupan. Kajian ini dilakukan mengunakan model tiang diperkukuh dengan FRP yang dibina menggunakan perisian LS–DYNA. Ia melibatkan beberapa siri simulasi untuk meramalkan tindakbalas letupan dan kerosakkan pada tiang sekiranya sesuatu beban letupan dikenakan. Melalui simulasi ini, kekuatan FRP, bilangan lapisan ketebalan FRP dan susunatur FRP dapat ditentukan. melalui keputusan–keputusan yang diperolehi, pressure–impulse diagram (P–I) bagi tiang yang diperkukuhkan dengan FRP dapat dibentuk. Kata kunci: Pengukuhan; beban letupan; FRP; P–I diagrams There are only limited studies that directly correlate the increase in structural capacities in resisting the blast loads with the fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthenin. In this paper, numerical analyses of dynamic response and damage of reinforced concrete (RC) columns strengthened with FRP to blast loads are carried out using the commercial software LS–DYNA. A series of simulations are performed to predict the blast response and damage of columns with different FRP type. The simulations also involved parametric studies by varying the FRP thickness, configuration, different column dimension, concrete strength, and longitudinal and transverse reinforcement ratio. The numerical results are used to develop pressure–impulse (P–I) diagrams of FRP strengthened RC columns. Based on the numerical results, the empirical formulae are derived to calculate the pressure and impulse asymptotes of the P–I diagrams of RC columns strengthened with FRP. Key words: Strengthening; blast loads; FRP; P–I diagrams

Corroded RC columns do not possess necessary ductility to dissipate seismic energy during a major earthquake, the study investigates the use of hybrid fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping as a method of retrofitting non-ductile corroded RC columns, and a model to determine the envelope response of RC corroded columns strengthened with hybrid FRP are presented based on cross-section analysis for undamaged RC element. The results show that the technique of strengthening corroded RC column with hybrid FRP is quite effective, the envelope curve estimated using the linear plane assumption with modification by reinforcement slip model, may still be used as the envelope curve of RC corroded columns strengthened with hybrid FRP, a good agreement between analytical and experimental results is observed.
