Sprayed glass fiber reinforced polymers in shear strengthening and enhancement of impact resistance of reinforced concrete beams

Shear failure of reinforced concrete (RC) beams is often sudden and catastrophic. A timely shear strengthening of deficient RC beams is therefore critical in view of maintaining public safety. In this dissertation, the effectiveness of externally bonded sprayed glass fiber reinforced polymer (Sp...
