M . Neglect the compression reinforcement. The CFRP covers the tension
face of the beam and is wrapped 6 " up the two sides of the beam section, as shown
(Rasheed et al. 2010). The CFRP sheets have the following properties:

Solution:
Since these examples are intended to target ductile crushing failure, there is no
need to use the environmental factors ( C e ) of ACI 440.2R-08.
