Content DescriptionFiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) systems can be used for strengthening masonry structures and masonry elements among other options such as external steel plates, section enlargement with reinforced concrete (RC) overlays or shotcrete, steel bracing, and internal steel reinforcement. FRP systems offer advantages over traditional strengthening techniques: they are lightweight, relatively easy to install, and are corrosion-resistant. Due to the characteristics of FRP materials as well as the behavior of masonry members strengthened with FRP, specific guidance on the use of these systems is needed. This document offers a description of the unique material properties of FRP and committee recommendations on the engineering, construction, and inspection of FRP systems used to strengthen masonry. These guidelines are based on the knowledge gained from experimental research, analytical work, and field applications of FRP systems used to strengthen masonry structures. Keywords: buildings; columns; confinement; cracking; cyclic loading; detailing; earthquake resistance; fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs); fibers; flexure; masonry; shear; strengthening; structural analysis; structural design; unreinforced; walls; wind resistance.This book also exists in the following packages...About ACIFounded in 1904 and headquartered in Farmington Hills, Michigan, USA, the American Concrete Institute is a leading authority and resource worldwide for the development and distribution of consensus-based standards, technical resources, educational & training programs, certification programs, and proven expertise for individuals and organizations involved in concrete design, construction, and materials, who share a commitment to pursuing the best use of concrete.
