An exception to Section 250.50 relaxes this mandatory requirement for existing buildings and structures in which connecting the concrete-encased electrode could damage the structural integrity of the building or otherwise disturb the existing construction. Such beams have very good strength and ductility, and their deflections are almost completely reversible, even after loading to their peak capacity, provided that enough FRP reinforcement has been added at the bottom to prevent brittle failure by fracture of the FRP in tension. The main reason is that the structural integrity of the concrete would have been compromised by having a human body encased in it. This includes all concrete-encased electrodes present at the building or structure. A Kansas mother and her live-in boyfriend charged in the murder of her 3-year-old son whose body was found last fall encased in concrete in their. Rectangular FRP-encased concrete beams were constructed also with varying amounts of unidirectional FRP reinforcement added at the bottom. This will probably take a long time to show any ill effects though, although testing. Any cables through floors should have been routed through a rising duct, I am assuming it is far too late now and they are staying where they are. Circular FRP-encased concrete cylinders tested in concentric compression exhibit very high strength and ductility. The concrete will not do them any good as it can degrade the outer sheath, and eventually the inner insulation. Such a combination can result in significant savings in material and construction costs. It is proposed to construct FRP plain concrete composite members, in which an FRP casing is used as a form that stays permanently with the member, confining the concrete and acting as tensile reinforcement.
