Innovative materials such as steel reinforced grout (SRG) have shown superior behavior in
terms of sustainability and compatibility comparing to their FRP counterparts for external …

Abstract Steel Reinforced Polymers (SRPs) and Steel Reinforced Grout (SRG) strengthening
systems have been recently introduced as an alternative solution to the traditional systems …

Most ancient and historical buildings are masonry structures. One of the innovative methods
to enhance masonry structures is the steel-reinforced grout (SRG) with ultra-high tensile …

This paper deals with the experimental and numerical study of the bond behavior of two
steel reinforced grout (SRG)-strengthened masonry systems. Ten shear bond tests were …

The strengthening of out-of-plane loaded unreinforced masonry (URM) walls strengthened
with near-surface mounted (NSM) FRP strips has proven to be an innovative and cost …

Fiber Reinforced Polymers have become a popular material for external strengthening of
masonry structures. The performance of this strengthening technique is strongly dependent …

Textile reinforced mortar (TRM) composites are an innovative solution for strengthening
masonry structural elements due to their effectiveness and sustainability, as well as their …

This paper deals with the experimental characterization of the mechanical tensile and shear
bond behavior of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets externally glued on masonry prisms …

Bond behavior between masonry and FRP was investigated in the present paper; in
particular, its numerical modeling was carried out considering both single bricks and …

In this paper, the debonding phenomenon in FRP-strengthened masonry is numerically
investigated. A 3D finite element model is developed to reproduce an experimental set-up of …
