What is ACI Guide for FRP Strengthening URM Walls about?

The paper summarizes the design protocols in ACI 440.7R-10 for flexural and shear strengthening of unreinforced masonry walls with fiber reinforced polymer systems. It describes the development of the protocols, which included calibrating bond reduction factors based on a literature review of test results. The protocols provide guidance for flexural strengthening to resist out-of-plane loads and shear strengthening. Stocky walls that develop arching behavior may not require strengthening.
