The Behavior of RC Beams Strengthened with Steel Fiber Concrete Layer by ANSYS Simulation

<div>When the diameter of the compressed steel bars varied, cracking and damage began to appear in the beams: (a) cracks begin to appear in the beam (<i>P</i><sub>crack</sub> = 9 kN), 2<i>ϕ</i>16; (b) damage to the beam begins to appear (<i>P</i><sub>max</sub> = 131 kN), 2<i>ϕ</i>16.</div>
