The objective of the paper is to study the behavior of continuous R.C. beams under static loading. The beams are strengthened with externally bonded glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) sheets and carbon fibre polymer sheets (CFRP). Different scheme of strengthening has been employed. The project consists of Twenty simply supported beams with overall cross-section of 200mm×200mm×1000mm. The present study examines the responses of RC beams, in terms of failure modes, enhancement of load capacity and load deflection analysis. Various different beams are cracked under UTM and then repaired with the help of Fiber Reinforced Sheet prior to the application of Primer and epoxy and also a comparison is being made between single, double and triple wrapped fiber sheets. Fibre materials are used to strengthen a variety of reinforced concrete elements to enhance the flexural, shear and axial load carrying capacity of elements. The results indicate that the flexural strength of R.C. beams can be significantly increased by wrapping GFRP and CFRP sheets to the tension face
