The mechanical properties of masonry structural members strengthened by FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymer) are affected by the bond strength of the reinforcement interface, in addition to the strength of the material FRP itself. This project is aimed at the new technology of Sprayed Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composites (SFRP), which is currently attracting attention. The bond strength between SFRP layer and masonry surface under high-humidity condition during strengthening construction and dry-wet cycle conditions after reinforcement were studied by experimental method. Different masonry substrates and different reinforcement methods were set as the test parameters. It is concluded that, compared with the currently used GFRP (Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer) sheets reinforcement method, the SFRP reinforcement method has an significant improvement in the bond strength and the durability.

In this article, the response of 12 plain concrete specimens to an impact of hard projectiles was examined in an experimental study. The tests were planned with an aim to observe the influence of using glass fiber reinforced polymer sheets to strengthen plain concrete panels on the performance of concrete under this type of loading. The main findings show that strengthening plain concrete panels with glass fiber reinforced polymer sheets showed satisfactory performance under the impact load; the glass fiber reinforced polymer sheets can be used for strengthening or upgrading concrete structures to improve their resistance against impact. Also, the location of the glass fiber reinforced polymer sheet affects the front and rear face craters.
