Abstract: The repair and retrofit/rehabilitation of existing concrete and masonry structures have traditionally been accomplished with externally bonded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) systems, steel plates, reinforced concrete (RC) ...

Abstract: Traditional methods used to repair prestressed concrete (PC) girders subjected to impact damage due to overheight vehicles include strand splicing and external posttensioning. These methods have proven to be partially ...

Abstract: Fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) composites consist of a dry fiber fabric embedded in an inorganic mortar that may be enriched with short fibers. These composites are particularly well-suited for the strengthening ...
