Abstract: Abstract This paper presents the experimental behaviours of reinforced concrete (RC) T-beams strengthened using an innovative technique, namely, wire mesh-polyurethane cement (WM-PUC) composite. The flexural behaviour of WM-PUC-strengthened beams was investigated. This investigation considered three… read more here.
