Abstract: For the strengthening of reinforced concrete beam, fibers are used which are made of non-starch polysaccharides such as cellulose. Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP) sheets or plates are appropriate to this application due to their high quality to-weight proportion, great exhaustion properties and phenomenal impervious to corrosion. The conduct of the structurally debilitated part of the fortified concrete beam retrofitted with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) covers in flexure or in shear. Flexural and shear of RCC beam consider the two examples for example, control specimen and Retrofitted specimens. Furthermore, of the customary Portland Concrete (OPC) incorporated with the water, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate and the beam consider the various sample control samples (CC) and Retrofitted Cement (RC). Beams are Retrofitted with various Resin (epoxy, Orthophthalic, (GP), ISO) fortified CFRP. The samples are set curing 28 days and to assess the compressive quality (CS), Flexural Strength (FS) and Deflection (D) of the Reinforced Concrete (RC) beam. Downright eight numbers beams were tried and the particular readings were recorded. The beams were U shape wrapping and tried for flexural conduct assessment. The wrapping sheet builds a critical load conveys limit flexure and shear of the reinforced concrete bar.
