Concrete confinement with steel-reinforced grout jackets [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials and Structures, 2014
The potential of steel fiber reinforced jackets combined with inorganic matrix (cementitious grout matrix) as an alternative strengthening system to fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) jackets was investigated experimentally in the current study. For this purpose, the novel jacketing device was applied on cylindrical specimens subjected to monotonic ...
