In recent years, CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) had been widely used for reinforcement of damaged concrete beams. This study was conducted to develop the crack location technique for CFRP retrofitted concrete beam using AE(Acoustic Emission) method. To experimentally prove the crack source location made of four reinforced concrete beams retrofitted by CFRP. The results compared the real cracking location with the source location has perceived by AE monitoring, before it is appeared the primary crack by visual observation. So, This study used by a basic data in constructing the system of the failure warning at application.
