CFRP Strengthening of Damaged Stone Masonry Column

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper deals with the effectiveness of CFRP confinement externally bonded on the surface of damaged stone masonry columns. The experimental measurement carried out within the DF12P01OVV037 research project [1] includes the mechanical behavior, specimen´s strength and failure modes. The results showed that the CFRP confinement may be considered as an effective stabilization technique able to increase the structural safety of damaged stone columns.
