The existing CFRP(carbon fiber reinforced plastic) plate clip-type anchorage exhibits arching deformation during the tensioning process due to compressive forces on the inside wall of the anchor cup. This causes "voids" at the contact interface between the anchor cup and the clip, leading to an uneven distribution of lateral forces within the CFRP plate anchorage section. The sides of the CFRP plate are prone to cracking failure due to stress concentration. An optimized design for arching clip-type CFRP plate anchors was proposed to address this issue. Finite element numerical simulations and static loading tension tests were conducted on clip-type anchors with varying arch heights. The findings show that the primary failure mode of conventional CFRP plate clip-type anchors is initial cracking followed by fragmentation, with an anchoring efficiency of only 68.75%. When the arch height is low, the voids in the anchor cup are not adequately filled, resulting in lower compressive stress and an anchoring efficiency of 56.67%. When the arch height is too high(0.5 mm), stress concentration occurs in the middle section of the CFRP plate anchorage, which increases the anchoring efficiency to 81.25%, but this is still suboptimal. Notably, when the arch height is set to 0.25 mm, anchoring efficiency increases to 90.83%, and the failure mode shifts to explosive failure, indicating that the CFRP material has been fully utilized. The rational adjustment of the clip's arch height effectively prevents cracking failures in the CFRP plate anchorage due to voids, demonstrating the significant engineering application value of this research.
