Fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) strengthening systems are mainly used to retrofit existing and deficient structural members. The performance of such strengthened structures at elevated temperatures is a critical issue that threatens the safety of the structure. Published research includes experimental testing of reinforced concrete (R.C) beams strengthened using FRP and subjected to fire tests. However, there is a need for numerical tools that simulate the performance of these FRP-strengthened elements in case of fire. This research work presents numerical modelling and nonlinear analysis conducted to assess the performance of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with externally bonded carbon FRP sheets when subjected to standard fire conditions. Finite element model using the general purpose software ANSYS 12.1 is developed and validated with experimental results published in the literature by other researchers.
