Fabric Reinforced Cementitious Matrix

In the last years, the interest in eco-sustainable composites has consistently increased. Such innovative materials are actually a promising sustainable solution for structural strengthening since they can be an alternative to petroleum‐based materials, which are frequently used for masonry retrofitting. This work describes an experimental campaign dedicated to investigating the behavior of Fabric-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM) with natural fibers (NFRCM) made with eco-sustainable materials. Experimental tests are performed on unreinforced masonry panels (URM) and reinforced ones (RM), for characterizing their mechanical behavior. URM samples are compared with RM ones accounting for their response under shear actions.

Fabric Reinforced Cementitious Matrix

AbstractFabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) composites, also known as textile reinforced mortars (TRM), an inorganic matrix constituting fibre fabrics and cement-based mortar, are becoming a widely used composite material in Europe for upgrading the seismic resistance of existing reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings. One way of providing seismic resistance upgrading is through the application of the proposed FRCM system on existing masonry infill walls to increase their stiffness and integrity. To examine the effectiveness of this application, the bond characteristics achieved between (a) the matrix and the masonry substrate and (b) the fabric and the matrix need to be determined. A series of experiments including 23 material performance tests, 15 direct tensile tests of dry fabric and composites, and 30 shear bond tests between the matrix and brick masonry, were carried out to investigate the fabric-to-matrix and matrix-to-substrate bond behaviour. In addition, different arrangements of extruded polystyrene (XPS) plates were applied to the FRCM to test the shear bond capacity of this insulation system when used on a large-scale wall.
