Effect of main and NSM reinforcing materials on the behavior of the shear strengthened RC beams with NSM reinforced HSC layers and bars

Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2023
It became common practice to utilize near-surface mounted (NSM) bars to improve the shear capacity of steel-reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Consequently, carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) is usually used to improve RC beams' shear performance ...
