Masonry prisms have been widely used in research and quality control of masonry
structures, as they are simplified models that can represent the interaction between different …

Fiber-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) composites have become increasingly popular
in the last decade, due to the ability of this type of composites to overcome some of the …

Abstract Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) and Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC)
have been widely used to strengthen masonry columns due to their superior mechanical …

The strength capacity of confined masonry column is one of the topics that need to be
studied. In this study, the efficiency of using different types of advanced composite (non …

The application of composite materials embedded in the horizontal mortar joints to
strengthen masonry structures with insufficient load-bearing capacity has shown beneficial …

To overcome the relatively low ductility and capacity of masonry elements, the confinement
technique may be an effective alternative for improving their performance, especially the …

This study assesses the strength capacity of brick columns under various confinement
materials, including fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP), fiber-reinforced cementitious matrix …

A mechanistic model is presented for the strength prediction of squared columns made of
masonry with a periodic arrangement and strengthened with a fibre–polymer composite …

The lateral confinement of masonry columns using composites have shown to improve their
strength and ductility. Although, several research studies were focused on investigating the …

In this work, a wide experimental dataset about the axial behavior of masonry columns
confined with Fabric Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM) jackets (also refered to as TRM …
