The use of externally bonded (EB) fiber reinforced composites to strengthen reinforced
concrete (RC) structures has been explored extensively in recent decades. While many …

This experimental study intended to compare the effect of hybrid fiber between carbon fiber
(CF), basalt fiber (BF), and steel fiber (SF) on the torsional behavior of reinforced concrete …

Fiber reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) is emerging as a viable retrofit and confinement
technique, in lieu of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) system which suffers from a number of …

Many structural elements are subjected to a significant torsional moment that affects the
structural design and may require strengthening. This paper presents different effective …

In this paper, the problem of interfacial stresses in damaged reinforced concrete beams
strengthened with bonded prestressed functionally graded material plate and subjected to a …

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapped concrete columns are vulnerable to accidental
damage or vandalism, which may cause physical cuts or tearing of the jacket, thereby …

Modal curvature ratio approach for the localization and quantification of damage in beam-
type structures is proposed, demonstrating capability across both dense and sparse …

In the construction industry, there is growing attention of using effective external
strengthening techniques such as bonding of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) …

The torsional strengthening of reinforced concrete hollow beams (RCHBs) with externally
bonded stainless steel wire mesh (SSWM) was investigated. The experimental programme …

The present study evaluates the behaviour of wet precast beam-to-beam connection under
pure torsion through experimental and numerical studies. A wet connection is provided at …
