Este trabalho apresenta um estudo experimental do reforo de pilares de concreto armado, com
seo transversal de 120 mm x 250 mm, altura de 2500 mm, com a utilizao de lminas de
Polmeros Reforados com Fibra de Carbono (PRFC), em ingls Carbon Fiber Reinforced
Polymers (CFRP), atravs da tcnica NSM (Near Surface Mounted). A tcnica de reforo,
consiste na instalao do CFRP internamente em aberturas executadas na camada de cobrimento
do concreto. Os pilares foram reforados na face tracionada e na face comprimida, e submetidos
a flexo-compresso normal.
Para avaliao do comportamento dos pilares, da eficincia e eficcia da tcnica de reforo,
elaborou-se um programa experimental com 8 pilares. As variveis consideradas no estudo
foram, a excentricidade de aplicao de carga, na direo de menor inrcia da seo transversal,
e a aplicao ou no do reforo. Para cada variao de excentricidade, um modelo foi reforado
e o outro usado de referncia. Resultados de fora de runa; deslocamentos; fissurao;
deformaes no concreto, ao e reforo foram comparados. Os resultados de fora ltima foram
ainda comparados com os estimados pelas normas: ANBT NBR 6118:2014, ACI 318:2014 e
fib Model Code 2010, considerando a eficincia total do reforo.
Os resultados obtidos experimentalmente mostraram que a tcnica aplicada eficiente,
resultando em ganho na capacidade de carga. Esse ganho aumenta com o aumento da relao da
excentricidade relativa. No entanto, os pilares C40S, C50S e C60S apresentaram ruptura
prematura, por descontinuidade do reforo nas extremidades, no sendo possvel verificar a
eficincia total da tcnica de reforo. O reforo resultou em incrementos na capacidade de
resistncia de 14,7%, 18,8%, 16,7% e 37,3%, respectivamente, em relao aos pilares de
referncia. A tcnica de reforo NSM apresentou eficincia por evitar o modo de ruptura por
descolamento do reforo, evidenciando que para pilares submetidos a flexo-compresso no
ocorre este modo de ruptura.

This work presents an experimental studies of reinforced concrete columns, with cross section
of 120 mm x 250 mm and height of 2500 mm, using Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer strips
(CFRP), through the NSM (Near Surface Mounted) technique. The strengthened technique
consists of installing the CFRP internally in openings executed in the cover layer of the
concrete. The columns were strengthened on the tensile face and on the compressed face, under
combined axial load and bending.
To evaluate the behavior of the columns, the efficiency and the effectiveness of the strengthened
technique, an experimental program with 8 columns was elaborated. The variables considered in
the study were, the eccentricity of load application, in the direction of lesser inertia of the cross
section, and the application or not of the strengthened. For each variation of eccentricity, one
model was strengthened and the other used reference. Results of ultimate force, displacements,
cracking, strains in concrete, steel and strengthened were compared. The experimental ultimate
load results were compared to the values obtained by the codes: ANBT NBR 6118: 2014, ACI
318: 2014 and fib MODEL CODE 2010, considering the total efficiency of the strengthened.
Experimentally results obtained showed that the applied technique is efficient, resulting in gain
in the load capacity. This gain increases with the relative eccentricity increase. However, the
columns C40S, C50S and C60S showed premature rupture due to discontinuity of the
strengthened at the ends, and it was not possible to verify the total efficiency of the strengthened
technique. The strengthening resulted in increases in the resistance capacity of 14,7%, 18,8%,
16,7% and 37,3%, respectively, in relation to the reference columns. The NSM strengthened
technique showed efficiency by avoiding the rupture mode by strengthening debonding,
evidencing that for columns submitted to flexo-compression this rupture mode does not occur.
