This paper presents a large-scale experimental analysis of a new high-tech method for strengthening reinforced concrete columns using metal and CFRP materials. The research is justified by evaluating existing traditional and modern methods of strengthening reinforced concrete compressed elements, identifying their main drawbacks, and taking these into account, a new strengthening method was developed. To study the large-scale effect of the new high-tech metal and composite-based strengthening method, two groups of a total of 46 reinforced concrete column samples with different flexibilities were designed and tested for central and eccentric compression until failure. The main test parameters included column flexibility, load application eccentricity, internal and external metal reinforcement, spacing, and cross-sectional area of composite strengthening. The study investigated the influence of the above-mentioned variable factors on the failure pattern, ultimate strength, peak stress, and deformation characteristics of columns strengthened with carbon fiber composite materials (CFRP). The results showed that reinforced concrete columns strengthened with CFRP, having the same dimensions and tested under the same load application eccentricities, demonstrated different increases in ultimate strength compared to unstrengthened columns. Peak stress increased with an increase in the cross-sectional area of metal reinforcement and decreased with an increase in the distance between composite stirrups. Ultimate axial strains of strengthened samples increased with a decrease in the distance between composite stirrups. The difference in the cross-sectional area of composite strengthening did not have a significant impact on the load-bearing capacity and ultimate strains of reinforced concrete strengthened structures.
