The seismic strengthening of buildings in earthquake-prone areas has been a hot topic in recent years, especially for masonry structures. Because there are so many masonry structures and because most were built before seismic codes existed, their seismic...

Much research has been conducted and published on the examination of the behavior of reinforced steel and concrete structures with a FRP system. Nevertheless, the performance of FRP differs from that of FRCM, particularly at high temperature and ultimate...

The reinforcement of concrete structures using FRCM is a rather novelty approach that overcomes some of the drawbacks of organic composites such as carbon fiber CFRP. Moreover, the use of vegetal fabrics has a direct effect on the carbon footprint. Some ...
