The proposed book, Advanced Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix: Enhancing Performance and Longevity of Concrete Structures, is a collaborative effort by experts in structural engineering, materials science, and concrete rehabilitation. This comprehensive volume will cover the fundamentals of Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM), including their material composition, mechanical properties, and comparative advantages over traditional strengthening techniques. Drawing from the latest design codes such as ACI 549.6R-20 and CNR DT 215-2018, the book will provide in-depth guidance on FRCM applications in strengthening beams, slabs, and columns. It will also include analytical modeling, fire endurance considerations, installation techniques, and quality control measures to ensure structural integrity and long-term durability.

With contributions from leading researchers and practitioners, the book will bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical implementation. It will feature case studies, laboratory and field testing methodologies, and real-world applications that highlight successful FRCM strengthening projects. The collaborative effort of multiple authors will bring diverse perspectives and insights, making this book a valuable resource for civil engineers, researchers, and industry professionals. By addressing both the challenges and future trends in FRCM technology, this book aims to serve as a definitive guide for those involved in modern structural rehabilitation and sustainable construction practices.
