Recent research works into the design and response evaluation of deep diaphragm walls and induced settlements to adjacent buildings demonstrated that the nonlinear behavior of surrounding soil, cracking effects affecting ...

Overlapping jet-grout columns are often used to form a grout slab at the bottom of deep excavations to support the retaining structures. Columnar geometrical imperfections, spatially varying strength and stiffness and the ...

This paper presents an experimental investigation on the application of textile-reinforced mortar (TRM) layers as a means of increasing the flexural capacity of two-way reinforced concrete (RC) slabs with cut openings. The ...

This paper presents an experimental investigation on the use of textile-reinforced mortar (TRM) jackets as a means of improving the out-of-plane performance of masonry infill walls in reinforced concrete (RC) frames during ...

Textile reinforced mortars (TRM), also known in the international literature as textile reinforced concrete (TRC) or fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) materials, have been widely studied during the last two ...
