Abstract |
Short beam tests of GFRP and CFRP specimens exposed to high temperature were conducted to measure the inter-laminar shear strength. For the phase I test, the exposure time and temperature were varied to measure reduction in the strength due to the applied conditions. As a results, the critical temperature was found to 270℃ for the both FRP reinforcements. The high temperature, which causes 50% loss of inter-laminar shear strength, is defined as the critical temperature in this study. It should be noted that the critical temperature for the inter-laminar shear strength is mainly dependent on resin properties not on fiber type. In the phase II test, the effect of exposure time was investigated at intervals of 0.25hour for the critical temperature. All test results demonstrate that the exposure time effect is not significant compared to the maximum exposure temperature, but it is not negligible and, moreover, is significant at the critical temperature.
