Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Reinforcement of Concrete Structures: Addressing Bond Failures provides a comprehensive, research-informed, and practice-oriented resource on the strengthening and durability of aging RC (Reinforcement of Concrete) structures using FRP. The book integrates the diverse aspects of FRP strengthening - from the micro-scale phenomena of bonding and material behavior to the macro-scale performance of structural members - into a coherent framework for both research and application in real-world situations. By bridging theoretical foundations with practical implications, the book equips readers with the understanding needed to effectively design and implement FRP strengthening solutions: with the ultimate goal of ensuring the safe and durable extension of service life for aging infrastructure through the informed use of FRP technologies - grounded in both the latest research and proven engineering practice

Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Reinforcement of Concrete Structures provides a rigorous treatment of FRP-concrete interface mechanics, giving readers a comprehensive theoretical framework for bonding
A standout feature of this book is its detailed examination of failure modes under both static and cyclic loading
In order to tackle the complexity of multiscale phenomena, the book introduces multiscale modeling approaches in a didactic manner. It bridges the gap between material science and structural engineering by showing how microscale properties (e.g. fiber and matrix behavior, interface micro-cracking, adhesive properties) can be linked to macroscale structural performance
The book provides an up-to-date discussion of durability, ensuring that readers appreciate how long-term factors intertwine with structural performance
The book includes many analytical models, closed-form solutions, and theoretical derivations that readers can directly employ or build upon in their own research
