A Review on Use of FRP Mesh and Bamboo Fiber Composite Material for AAC Block Masonry Wall Strengthening and Water Resistance

Abstract: For the purpose of strengthening masonry walls, externally bonded composite materials offer a desirable solution. Current studies in this area demonstrate that the use of fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs), which are externally bonded composite materials, improves the strength, stiffness, and ductility of the wall under loads while maintaining the wall's integrity at failure
