Exiting literature revealed that fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) is a promising material for the strengthening of shear deficient reinforced concrete (RC) beams. However, most of the available experimental ...

The effect of the shear span-to-depth (a/d) ratio on the shear behavior of steel reinforced grout (SRG)-strengthened reinforced concrete (RC) beams is experimentally investigated. Four critical shear spans corresponding ...

Steel reinforced grout (SRG) has shown to be an efficient and cost-effective strengthening solution for reinforced concrete (RC) structures. With regard to RC beams, the experimental studies to date have focused mainly on ...

This paper presents a data-driven approach to determine the load and flexural capacities of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) composites in flexure. A total of ...

This paper presents a comprehensive experimental work to study the interaction between the internal and external shear reinforcement for strengthened reinforced concrete (RC) deep beams. For this purpose, a total of twelve ...

A noble cause motivated the interest to carry out research work on an inexpensive strengthening technique using ferrocement for reinforced concrete beams applicable in developing countries. Ferrocement as an inexpensive ...

This paper constitutes a special importance for developing countries where an affordable trowel-based strengthening system is needed. This paper also provides an affordable strengthening solution when it is not possible ...

This paper presents experimental results on the strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams using 'hybrid near surface embedded/externally bonded' NSE/EB technique for fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM). Six ...

This paper presents an experimental study on the efficacy of near-surface mounted (NSM) hybrid carbon/glass fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) strips for the strengthening of shear-critical reinforced concrete (RC) deep beams. ...

The experimental study on the shear strengthening the efficacy of a recently introduced hybrid carbon/glass fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) for reinforced concrete (RC) deep beams has been presented in this study. The hybrid ...
