  ABSTRACT: The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of fiber reinforcement polymer (FRP) on shear behavior of reinforcement concrete (RC) beams with various guidelines. The FRP thickness, beam depth and concrete strength at ultimate load are considered as main strength parameters. A finite element (FE) by using ANSYS computer program was used to analyzethe reinforced concrete beams. The numerical modelswereused to investigate the effect of beam depth, concrete strength, CFRP sheet configuration, and CFRP sheet thickness on the behavior of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with CFRP sheets compared with different guidelines. The results from ACI guideline show little differencecompared with FE, which make it suitable for RC beams strengthened with FRP sheets.
