Fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) have gained rapid popularity in recent years as one of the strengthening techniques of structural concrete elements. Particularly, increase in the use of FRP composite materials for strengthening ...

Numerous confinement models which can be categorized as design or analysis oriented have been proposed for predicting the behavior of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)-confined concrete columns. Analysis-oriented models ...

Enhancement of strength and ductility is the main reason for the extensive use of FRP jackets to provide external confinement to reinforced concrete columns especially in seismic areas. Therefore, numerous researches have ...
