Numerical study of the role of mortar joints in the bond behavior of FRP-strengthened masonry

The performance of the interface between FRP and masonry is one of the key factors affecting the behavior of strengthened masonry elements. Therefore, a sound understanding of the interface behavior is crucial at the design stage. In this paper, the effect of mortar joints in the bond behavior of FR...
