This study analytically investigated the axial-flexural (P-M) interactions of quare reinforced concrete (RC) columns discontinuously strengthened swith fibre reinforced polymers (FRP). Six FRP confined concrete stress-strain models and two sectional analysis methods were used to develop the analytical P-M interactions of discontinuously FRP strengthened square RC columns. The developed analytical P-M interactions were validated against experimental data available in the literature. It was found that the selection of the stress-strain models had a substantial effect on the analytical P-M interactions, while the influence of the sectional analysis methods heavily depended on the selected stress-strain models. It was also found that the three available design codes for concrete structures externally strengthened with FRP yielded different analytical P-M interactions of discontinuously FRP strengthened square RC …
