Retrofitting with FRCM Composites: Shear and Flexural Behaviour of Strengthened Masonry Walls
Structural strengthening using composite materials is nowadays one of the most interesting techniques to overcome weaknesses of masonry structures constituting large part of the building heritage. The use of FRCM composites is becoming more and more widespread due to some limitations of FRP retrofitting systems. In this framework, the presented experimental study is aimed at evaluating the in-plane and the out-of-plane behaviour of masonry walls strengthened with different types of FRCMs, analyzing in detail failure modes, capacity increments and efficiency of the strengthening systems when tested using two different configurations. To this purpose, bidirectional basalt grids and unidirectional steel fiber sheets, coupled with a lime based mortar, were used for retrofitting clay brick masonry walls subjected to diagonal compression tests and out-of-plane flexural tests. Experimental outcomes, when considering the in-plane or the out-of-plane direction, show that the adopted different layout strictly influences the flexural and shear strengthening efficiency of the reinforcement.
