Iron-based shape memory alloy strips for strengthening RC members: Material behavior and characterization (2018, background): “45 Although the expensive NiTi-based alloys are the most widely used SMAs [1], low-cost copper46 based shape memory alloys (Cu-SMAs) and Fe-SMAs are gaining ground [2, 20-22].”
Fatigue behavior of a Fe-Mn-Si shape memory alloy used for prestressed strengthening (2017, background): “Because of these favorable properties, Fe-Mn-Si SMAs are being considered for mechanical engineering applications (such as coupling and tightening systems [1]) and civil structures (for active control [2], damping [3], and pre-stressing elements [4]).”

Experimental Investigation on the Seismic Behavior of Beam-Column Joints Reinforced with Superelastic Shape Memory Alloys (2008, background): “Febased SMAs are cheap (Janke et al. 2005) and may have better bond strength compared to that of Ni-Ti when used as reinforcing bars in RC structures.”
Feasibility of iron-based shape memory alloy strips for prestressed strengthening of concrete structures (2014, background): “Shape memory alloys (SMAs), depending on the type of alloy, are identified with several unique phenomena such as the shape memory effect (SME), superelasticity, large damping capacity or a two-way shape memory effect [8].”
