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

The emerging need to upgrade the structural performance of buildings and structures has
been recently alleviated with the newly developed textile-reinforced mortar (TRM) …

Collapses or serious damages of existing buildings during strong earthquakes have resulted
in significant economic losses, severe injuries and loss of human lives. Given the late …

This paper presents a state-of-the-art review on the available seismic upgrading techniques
of existing masonry structures, which comprise a very common structural material including …

This paper explores innovative techniques by combining inorganic textile-based composites
with thermal insulation for the simultaneous seismic and energy retrofitting of the existing old …

The out-of-plane response of masonry walls strengthened with textile-reinforced mortar
(TRM) is experimentally investigated in this work. Medium-scale three-point bending tests …

A new discretized homogenization approach is proposed in this study in order to predict the
behavior of unreinforced and FRCM reinforced masonry structures. The proposed approach …

Cement production industry is responsible for about 5% of the total anthropogenic CO 2
emissions. Alternative materials with reduced carbon footprint progressively introduced in …

The application of a new system, which combines textile reinforced mortars (TRM) and
thermal insulating materials as a means of both structural (including seismic) and energy …

The application of textile-reinforced mortar (TRM) as a means of increasing the flexural
capacity of two-way reinforced concrete (RC) slabs is experimentally investigated in this …
