This paper presents the results of a recent experimental research study where metallic (high-strength steel cord) fabric jackets (MF jackets) were utilised for the seismic upgrading of substandard reinforced concrete members. The proposed interventio... Read More about Metallic fabric jackets: an innovative method for seismic retrofitting of substandard RC prismatic members.
