Abstract: Abstract Recent experimental studies involving Fabric Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM) strengthening systems externally applied to structural supports have underlined important aspects characterizing their response. In particular, failure mechanisms quite different from the ones emerged in… read more here.
