en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 noi 2026
This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the theoretical foundations, key technologies, and engineering applications of fiber‑reinforced polymer (FRP) grids for strengthening and reinforcing concrete structures. Currently, many existing reinforced concrete structures have experienced performance deterioration, creating an urgent need for effective strengthening solutions. Owing to their high strength‑to‑weight ratio, excellent durability, and ease of construction, FRP grids have emerged as a promising material for structural strengthening. Drawing upon experimental investigations, theoretical analyses, and numerical simulations, this book systematically presents the interfacial behavior, flexural performance, shear performance, seismic performance, and design methods of FRP grid‑strengthened structures. In addition, it introduces the use of FRP grids as reinforcing materials in concrete structures. Covering applications in bridges, tunnels, buildings, and underwater constructions, this book is a valuable resource for engineers, researchers,
and graduate students in civil, structural, and materials engineering, as well as professionals involved in structural design, manufacturing, and rehabilitation.
Key Features
• Provides a detailed exploration of FRP grids, including constituent materials, manufacturing processes, mechanical properties, and structural behavior.
• Features comprehensive discussions on bond characteristics, debonding mechanisms, and stress transfer at the grid–concrete interface, supported by experimental, analytical, and numerical investigations to enhance the understanding of failure modes and interfacial behavior.
• Covers a wide range of applications, including flexural, shear, and seismic strengthening, spalling resistance, and the use of FRP grids as reinforcement for new structures, offering practical solutions for both retrofitting and new construction projects.

Notă biografică

Zhi‑Shen Wu earned his Ph.D. from Nagoya University, Japan, in 1990. His research interests include carbon/basalt fibers and FRP composite technologies, advanced sensor technologies, structural health/risk/disaster monitoring, control and management, and smart infrastructure. He has published 12 books and over 600 papers in refereed journals and international conference proceedings, including over 70 keynote or invited papers. He also holds over 100 authorized patents. He has received many awards, such as the JSCE Research Award in 1990, the JSCM Technology Award in 2007, the 2009 International SHM Person of the Year Award, the National Prize for Progress in Science and Technology of China in 2012, the IIFC (International Institute for FRP in Construction) medal in 2016, and the National Prize for Technology Innovation of China in 2017. He has been the committee chairman or board member of numerous national and international scientific societies, including serving as the president of the International Society for Structural Health Monitoring of Intelligent Infrastructures (ISHMII). Moreover, he serves as an editor, associate editor, and editorial board member for more than ten international journals, including the founding Editor‑in‑Chief of the International Journal of Sustainable Materials and Structural Systems. He is a member of the Engineering Academy of Japan and a fellow of ASCE, JSCE, ISHMII, and IIFC.
 
Xin Wang earned his Ph.D. from Ibaraki University, Japan, in 2010. His research interests comprise the long‑term behavior and life prediction of FRP composites and high‑performance and longevity structural systems with FRP. He has led or is leading six key projects, including the National Key R&D Plan, the National Science Foundation, and the National Key Technology R&D Program. He has published over 130 academic papers, including 90 SCI‑indexed journal papers, and holds 25 patents. He has edited 11 national/industrial codes and specifications. He is serving as the vice chair of the FRP application committee of CCES and as a council member of the International Institute for FRP in Construction (IIFC) and several national committees of FRP. He has co‑chaired the FRPRCS‑12 and APFIS‑2015 joint international conference. His research has been applied in several important constructions, including the Nanjing Yangzi River Bridge and the island tower in the South China Sea.
 
Wei‑Dong He earned his Ph.D. from Southeast University, China, in 2021. His main research areas are composite materials, concrete structures, and structural rehabilitation. He is currently a researcher at the School of Civil Engineering and Geomatics, Southwest Petroleum University, China.
