Ferrocement, Carbon, and Polypropylene Fibers for Strengthening Masonry Shear Walls

Ferrocement, Carbon, and Polypropylene Fibers for Strengthening Masonry Shear Walls

This paper describes an experimental investigation into the feasibility of using ferrocement jacketing, polypropylene fibers, and carbon fiber reinforced polymer sheets (CFRP) to enhance the shear resistance of unreinforced brick masonry. The study involved testing 12 wall panels in diagonal compres...
