• The use of fibre reinforced polymers to improve seismic resistance of masonry (2006, methodology): “Unreinforced blockwork was tested at the University of Alberta, first with an examination of how various widths, thicknesses and patterns of GFRP sheets improved bending stiffness and strength [30].”
• Experimental Behavior of FRP Strengthened Masonry Arches (2010, background): “Following these initial studies, several experimental works have been carried out (Ehsani et al. 1997, Kolsh 1998, Triantafillou 1998, Albert et al. 2001) showing that this technique is effectively valid as an option to repair or strengthen masonry structures, in particular arched ones (Valluzzi et…”
