“…Although few researchers have worked on an integrated approach capable of taking into account both issues. A recent paper by Triantafillou et al [57] discusses the structural and energy performance of a new retrofitting system based on TRM and thermal insulating materials. Medium scale experimental tests were performed on 17 masonry walls subjected to out of plane bending; the combination of TRM jacketing and thermal and fire-resistant insulation proved to be effective.…”

Abstract:The retrofitting of existing masonry buildings is now a crucial problem for Europe. Indeed, structural safety and energy efficiency should represent the target of any renovation. The proposal of a new synthetic performance parameter is presented and discussed. Following this approach, in this paper, after a review of the main studies available in the literature, a proposal of a new performance parameter approach is presented and discussed. It is capable of taking into account both the structural and thermal aspects of masonry retrofitting. An emblematic set of reinforcements and energy improvements for masonry walls is examined. An example, generalized formulas, and a simultaneous evaluation of the role of multiple structural and thermal parameters on masonry buildings are proposed, with a view to optimize several categories of costs related to the intervention.

“…Finally, the use of TRM jacketing for strengthening of masonry infills has been combined with thermal insulation materials for providing concurrent seismic and energy retrofitting. The concept of combined seismic and energy retrofitting with advanced materials was proposed for the first time and investigated experimentally for the case of masonry subjected to out-of-plane (Triantafillou et al 2017) and in-plane (Triantafillou et al 2018) loading. These studies introduced for the first time the combination of TRM with standard or even highly fire-resistant thermal insulation materials.…”

Textile reinforced mortars (TRM), also known in the international literature as textile reinforced concrete (TRC) or fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) materials, have been widely studied during the last two decades as they constitute a promising alternative to the fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) retrofitting solution for strengthening of reinforced concrete members. This paper presents a state-of-the-art review on the strengthening of concrete structures with TRM. First, the tensile and bond behavior of TRM is described. Next, an overview of studies on the use of TRM for flexural, shear, confinement, and seismic retrofitting of concrete or RC members is included, and the key parameters are investigated.

“…Several studies have reported about the importance of strengthening the masonry wall [1][2][3][4][5][6][7], even [8] developed strengthening methods for old historical masonry building in Slovenia, but there is little information about simple way to strengthening the masonry wall effectively, highly performance, and low-cost.…”

Shear wall known as high performance structure to resists seismic load. It has important that shear wall can be applied to masonry building as bearing wall in simple way, high performance, and low-cost. Therefore, this research wants to develop a simple way as well as simple shear walls that are connected by column as stiffer couple to strength the masonry wall. The aim of this research is to investigate compressive strength of couple simple shear wall compared to analytical compressive strength and also compressive strength of previous research. There were two couples of simple shear wall built on site, one was strengthening of the outer side of house wall and the other one was strengthening of the inner of masonry wall border edging, which are connected with column that placed at the edge and also in the corner. Each wall has dimension of 1 x 1 x 0.2 m while the column dimension was 0.20 x 0.20 m. Field application in this research followed by Rebound Hammer Test. The field result then compared of theoretical compressive strength and compressive strength of previous research. It is proven that couple simple shear wall easy to build and low-cost as well as simple design, ease for construction, and effectively strengthens the wall. The couple simple shear wall compressive strength was higher compared to compressive strength of masonry walls without strengthening and the theoretical compressive strength.
