Fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems have recently been introduced in the
construction industry as a viable alternative strengthening material, to circumvent problems …

The usage of organic matrix composites such as fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) in
retrofitting of structures is increasingly becoming popular among structural designers, which …

In this study, with the aim of investigating the confinement behavior and stress–strain
response of concrete columns strengthened with carbon textile reinforced concrete (CTRC) …

As well known the confinement is an effective intervention for increasing the compressive
strength of an axially loaded column. During the decades, different materials have been …
