A multi-level investigation on the mechanical response of TRM-strengthened masonry
| Resumo: | This paper presents a multi-level experimental and analytical investigation on the mechanical performance of TRM composites used for strengthening existing masonry structures. Micro (fabric-to-mortar bond), meso (TRM-to-substrate bond), and macro (TRM tensile response and in-plane and the out-of-plane response of TRM-strengthened masonry) response of TRMs are combined and investigated in-depth for this reason. These results help to understand the mechanisms controlling the response of these composites and their performance at the structural scale. |
