Fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) and composite-reinforced mortar (CRM) are recently introduced inorganic-matrix composites that have shown promising results as externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) of existing masonry structures. FRCM and CRM comprised high-strength fiber textiles embedded within inorganic matrices. Different fibers and matrices can be used, which lead to a large number of systems characterized by different properties.

Abstract

Fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) and composite-reinforced mortar (CRM) are recently introduced inorganic-matrix composites that have shown promising results as externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) of existing masonry structures. FRCM and CRM comprised high-strength fiber textiles embedded within inorganic matrices. Different fibers and matrices can be used, which lead to a large number of systems characterized by different properties. In this paper, different techniques employed to strengthen the existing masonry structures with EBR. FRCM and CRM composites are presented and discussed.
