Review on NSM CFRP Strengthened RC Concrete Beams in Shear

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
The use of NSM FRP strengthening of concrete structures has become an attractive option to retrofit the existing structures against shear and flexure. This paper reviews only the utilization of NSM for shear in previous review articles. A database of tests of NSM strengthened beams in shear is presented to evaluate the existing design formulations of ...

Torsional Strengthening of RC Beams with Near‐Surface Mounted Steel Bars

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
The strength of reinforced concrete members can be enhanced by using the externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) and near‐surface mounted (NSM) methods. However, very few studies have adopted the NSM method for torsional strengthening. Although previous studies have reported the efficacy of using epoxy‐resin‐bonded NSM steel bars in increasing the ...
