Abstract:
Highlights•Reinforced masonry walls were strengthened with FRCM and NSM FRP and subjected to cyclic loading.•Variables included type of strengthening technique, amount of fiber, and masonry bond pattern.•Behavior was investigated in terms of ultimate capacity, energy dissipation, and mode of failure.•Experimental results were compared to control specimen and the effect of parameters was reported.
