The use of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) anchors in combination with the conventional externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) installation technique is an effective method to …
Despite the advantages of the externally-bonded reinforcement on grooves (EBROG) technique in delaying the debonding phenomenon and even its elimination, further studies …
Despite extensive research on reinforced concrete (RC) members strengthened with fiber- reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets, limited knowledge exists regarding their torsional …
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are widely employed as externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) systems for strengthening reinforced concrete members. More recently …
Coupled shear walls (CSW) in reinforced concrete (RC) structures must be connected with stiff and strong coupling beams (CBs) to perform effectively during an earthquake. However …
This study aims to introduce a cost-effective composite for strengthening/retrofitting concrete elements in bond-critical applications. It comprises a polymeric or cementitious matrix …
Traditional systems for strengthening concrete structures, such as externally bonded reinforcement-fiber reinforced polymers (EBR-FRP) encounter difficulties associated with …
