Additioning alfa fibres in cement mortar
(Universidad Católica de Chile (UC), 2018)
Article
Open AccessCement mortar is a broadly used construction material. Adding fibres into the fresh mortar is an effective reinforcing technique to overcome the drawbacks related with the little tensile and flexural strength. Using natural ... -
Aided diagnosis of structural pathologies with an expert system
(2013-02)
Article
Open AccessSustainability and safety are social demands for long-life buildings. Suitable inspection and maintenance tasks on structural elements are needed for keeping buildings safely in service. Any malfunction that causes structural ... -
Analysis of brick masonry walls strengthened with fibre reinforced polymers and subjected to eccentric compressive loads
(2015-06-01)
Article
Open AccessFibre Reinforced Polymers laminates are currently used to strengthen brick masonry walls. However, no specific evidences of the structural response of this strengthening system when brick walls are subjected to eccentric ... -
Analysis of different types of cementitious-based composites used as shear strengthening system for reinforced concrete beams
(Universidad de Cantabria, 2016)
Conference report
Open AccessThe global tendency to apply sustainable criteria in most of the productive fields and the limited durability and the pathologies that reinforced concrete elements suffer are aspects that explain the increasing necessity ... -
Analysis of unreinforced and TRM-strengthened brick masonry walls subjected to eccentric axial load
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2014-02-07)
Doctoral thesis
Open AccessA significant number of buildings are supported by load-bearing masonry walls. The preservation of these worldwide used structures is a sustainable alternative. However, there is little research about the structural response ... -
Analysis of unreinforced masonry walls under eccentric axial load
(Scholar's Press, 2014)
Book
Restricted access - publisher's policyMany buildings are supported by load-bearing masonry walls and maintaining them is a need. Hence, a comprehensive study of these structures is necessary as a starting point. These walls are mostly subjected to vertical ... -
Analytical and simplified numerical approaches of FRCM pipes
(Elsevier, 2020-06-30)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyDespite the well-known advantages of fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM), few applications of this composite material have been proposed apart from structural strengthening. To exploit material corrosion resistance, ... -
Analytical method for the assessment of unreinforced brick masonry walls subjected to eccentric compressive loads
(2014-12-30)
Article
Open AccessSlender unreinforced masonry walls are likely to fail due to mechanism formation when they are subjected to eccentric compression loads causing second order bending effects. A practical analytical formulation is herein ... -
Analytical model for masonry walls strengthened with vegetal fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) composites and subjected to cyclic loads
(2020-12)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyMasonry is one of the eldest construction systems in the building industry, currently in use because some advantages like compressive capacity, traditional aesthetics, low cost and good practices. However, damages recorded ... -

Assessing the performance of CFRP strengthening on masonry walls using experimental modal analysis
(Elsevier, 2019-08-15)
Article
Open AccessStrengthening masonry structures using FRP laminates has been widely studied from a resistance point of view. However, there is a need of a non-destructive technique to validate strengthening interventions. In this paper, ... -
Bending performance of concrete beams strengthened with textile reinforced mortar TRM
(2014)
Article
Open AccessThis work presents a method of strengthening concrete structures based on textiles of high strength and mortars. The combination of textiles and mortars produces a new composite material with cementitious matrix. This ... -

Changes in properties of cement and lime mortars when incorporating fibers from end-of-life tires
(2016-02-05)
Article
Open AccessThis paper studies the addition of fibers from end-of-life tires to commercial mortar mixtures. Two different types of mortar, one lime-plastic and other cement-fluid, are mixed with different percentage of fibers ranging ... -
Comparison between TRM and FRP strengthening systems at preventing buckling failure of brick masonry walls
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), 2016-07-01)
Article
Open AccessFibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) and Textile Reinforced Mortar (TRM) have been studied, compared and applied to strengthen brick masonry walls. The comparison of their performance against second order bending effects is ... -
