Abstract: In order to study the fatigue behavior of RC beams strengthened with High Performance Ferrocement Laminates (HPFL) under
overloading conditions, static and fatigue experiments were conducted on two control beams and nine strengthened beams. The failure
mode, fatigue life, deflection and material strain under overloading conditions were analyzed. The result shows that (1) fatigue failure of
the beams subjected to overload starts with steel rupture at the bottom and the fatigue life is only between 327 000 and 668 000 while fatigue life of strengthened beams is greater than two million times in case of not overloading; (2) compared with the control specimen, the
fatigue life of strengthened beams is obviously extended and increased with the increase of steel mesh consumption; (3) after the same
number of cycles, the deflections, the strains of concrete and steels of four strengthened beams are lower than those of the control specimen. Debonding at the interface of HPFL and concrete is not observed because of shear pins planted at the end of the beams.

Strain-cycle curves
The experimental result reveals that the strain distribution of concrete is approximately linear. Before longitudinal
bars ruptured, the concrete at the edge of compression zone
is in elastic phase, with its stress less than the compressive
strength. So the average strain distribution still accord with
flat section assumption in spite of repeated loadings, being
nearly triangular distribution along the section height.
Conclusions
(1) All beams strengthened with HPFL are subjected to
fatigue failure in overload situation. The failure mode is longitudinal bar and steel mesh fracture followed by concrete
