Experimental and numerical assessments of slab-column connections strengthened using bonded hemp fiber fabric sheets

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Loai Khaled Al-Mawed from the Research Significance and Scope The literature review has revealed that strengthening interior slab-column connections using synthetic fibers (externally bonded CFRP or GFRP sheets) would increase the shear capacity of the connectionOther reported studies have shown improvement in the compression capacity of columns as well as the flexural and shear capacities of beams strengthened by HFRP fabric sheets. However, there is limited knowledge on the effectiveness of using natural HFRP fabric sheets in increasing the punching shear capacity of the concrete connections. The main objective of this study is to . . .
