FRP technique is growing in popularity as a modern strengthening method. When it comes to FRP, concrete surface strength plays a determining role in the bond between FRP and concrete. This paper aims to compare the efficiency of CFRP and GFRP in the improvement of compressive strength, acoustic impedance and bracing of filled and hollow concrete columns in different layers and ages. In doing so, we carried out various tests on 18 samples in the ages of 3, 7, 14, 28, 42 and 90 days. According to the results, the strength of un-braced carbon and glass increased by 19-40% and 8-43% respectively and the strength of braced carbon and glass increased by 17-25% and 10-82% respectively. The compressive strength increased by 66% in one-layer CFRP hollow column, 96% in two-layer CFRP hollow column, 123% in three-layer CFRP hollow column, 36% in one-layer GFRP hollow column, 63% in two-layer GFRP hollow column, 105% in three-layer GFRP hollow column, 71% in one-layer CFRP filled column, 138% in two-layer CFRP filled column, 154% in three-layer CFRP filled column, 45% in one-layer GFRP filled column, 79% in two-layer GFRP filled column, and 144% in three-layer GFRP filled column. The ultimate strength of the beams with flexural-shear strengthening was higher than other beams. Also, the increased percentage of fiber resulted in the increased speed of ultrasonic waves.
