Aimed at the problem of less theoretical discussion and quantitative analysis on the restriction of fiber-reinforced polymer(FRP) to the crack of reinforced concrete(RC) beams,according to concrete crack theory,the expression of the cracking process of RC beams strengthened with FRP was founded.Based on the experiment of five model T-beams strengthened with FRP,the crack width and spacing in different load levels were quantitatively analyzed.The effect of initial load to crack was considered both in the theoretical study and the experimental study.The result shows that the bond stress of FRP is the main cause to lessening crack width and spacing,and the cracking process of the strengthened RC beams can be divided into two phases.Finally,an improved method of calculating crack width of RC beams strengthened with FRP was suggested.
