Interferences6.1 Material and Specimen PreparationNon-uniformFRP or FRP-to-substrate adhesive thickness can affect anindividual test result. Variation in FRP or adhesive thicknessbetween specimens can cause biased or scattered test results.6.2
28、 Specimen DimensionsThis method calculates a valueof maximum force resisted by the FRP system, as such, resultsare dependent on the specimen dimensions. Values calculatedusing specimens having different dimensions should not becompared.6.3 FRP ReinforcementUse of excessive FRPreinforcement, sufficie
