Fiber reinforced composites represent an alternative to more traditional techniques for strengthening and retrofitting existing masonry structures.
The use of various jacketing techniques for strengthening or retrofitting the existing structural components is very frequent.
Fiber-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) composites may represent a valid alternative to the use of traditional techniques for strengthening and retrofitting existing reinforced concrete (RC) and masonry structures.
In this study, the effectiveness and efficiency of two different techniques for strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams using ultra-high performance fiber reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) was investigated i.e.; (i) by sand blasting RC beams surfaces and casting UHPFRC in-situ around the beams inside a mold and (ii) by bonding prefabricated UHPFRC strips to the RC beams using epoxy adhesive.
External prestressing techniques for strengthening beams can be found elsewhere (Harajli 1993; Shin et al. 2013).
