Textile reinforced concrete (TRC) is an innovative structure type of reinforced concrete in
which the conventional steel reinforcement is replaced with fibre textile materials. The thin …

The research addressed in the paper is aimed at calibrating a numerical model developed
by using a free open-source finite-element code for the assessment of the structural …

The use of virgin and recycled plastic macro fibers as reinforcing elements in construction
materials has recently gained increasing attention from researchers. Specifically, recycled …

An experimental work on reinforced concrete (RC) rectangular beams strengthened in shear
with textile reinforced mortar (TRM) jackets is presented in this paper, with focus on the …

Composite systems consisting of fibers in the form of open fabrics embedded within
inorganic matrices (Fabric Reinforced Cementitious Matrix, FRCM) have become a well …

In this paper, we investigate the effect of silica nano-coating for interphase bond
enhancement on the mechanical performance of Textile Reinforced Mortar (TRM) composite …

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 …

A large part of the European building Heritage is dated back over centuries. Consequently,
its structural and thermal performances are often inadequate. Commonly, different …

An experimental investigation on the mechanical performance of epoxy-coated Alkali-
Resistant (AR) glass textile reinforced mortar subjected to elevated temperature is …

The mechanical performance of epoxy coated AR-glass fabric reinforced composite is
investigated. A three-stage manufacturing process is considered, which involves fabric …
