Strength model for end cover separation failure in RC beams strengthened with near-surface mounted (NSM) FRP strips [PDF]
Abstract As an alternative to externally bonded FRP reinforcement, near-surface mounted (NSM) FRP reinforcement can be used to effectively improve the flexural performance of RC beams. In such FRP-strengthened RC beams, end cover separation failure is one of the common failure modes.

Abstract Debonding failures of FRP have been frequently observed in laboratory tests of reinforced concrete (RC) beams flexurally-strengthened with near-surface mounted (NSM) fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP). A number of numerical and theoretical studies have been carried out to predict debonding failures in NSM FRP-strengthened beams, and several ...

Abstract The near-surface mounted (NSM) FRP strengthening technique has attracted worldwide attention as an effective alternative to the externally bonded (EB) FRP strengthening technique. In the NSM FRP strengthening method, grooves are first cut in the concrete cover of a concrete member for the FRP reinforcement to be inserted and embedded using ...

Abstract In the strengthening of existing deficient structures using the near-surface mounted (NSM) FRP method, a group of parallel NSM FRP strips are usually needed to meet the capacity enhancement requirement. When the groove spacing (i.e., the net distance between grooves) is relatively small, the bond behaviour of each NSM FRP strip is ...

The behaviour of RC beams strengthened with NSM FRP bars was experimentally investigated. Eight beams were tested under four point bending. The effects of material type, epoxy properties, bar size and the number of NSM bars were studied. The tested beams were strengthened with a limited bond length in order to imitate as much as possible work-place ...

Application of near surface mounted (NSM) strengthening technique to traditional timber frame walls [PDF]
Abstract Timber frame buildings are well known as an efficient seismic resistant structure popular all over the world not only due to their seismic performance, but also to their low cost and the strength they offer. These constructions still exist today and it is important to be able to preserve them, so a better knowledge on their behaviour is ...

RC beams damaged by cracking and strengthened with NSM CFRP/GFRP rods
The near surface mounted (NSM) method of inserting fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) elements (rods or lamina) into notches has been shown to be a good way for restoring reinforced concrete (RC) elements.

Torsional Strengthening of RC Beams with Continuous Spiral Near-Surface Mounted Steel Wire Rope
The strength of reinforced concrete members can be enhanced using externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) and near surface mounted (NSM) methods. However, small number of studies has adopted the NSM method for torsional strengthening. To date, no study has
