Textile reinforced mortars (TRM), also known in the international literature as textile
reinforced concrete (TRC) or fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) materials, have …

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 …

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 …

Bond aspects may significantly influence the effectiveness of Fiber Reinforced Cementitious
Matrix (FRCM) jackets as confining system. Among them, this paper focuses on the following …

Many concrete bridges around the world have passed their service life and are at high risk of
collapse, especially in active seismic regions. This is particularly true in many developing …

This paper investigates the performance of four different strengthening techniques used to
improve the shear capacity of RC beams. Three of the four strengthening techniques used …

This paper investigates the compressive strength of concrete columns confined with a new
jacketing system using high strength steel reinforced fabrics embedded in an inorganic …

The application of composite materials to strengthen existing structural elements is a valid
alternative to traditional strengthening techniques. Fiber reinforced cementitious matrix …

The shear strength of reinforced concrete (RC) elements can be improved by applying
externally bonded (EB) fiber-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) composites. FRCM …
