The evolution of structural engineering addresses aging infrastructure, increasing loads, and harsh environmental conditions. Reinforced concrete (RC) structures, central to modern construction, face durability challenges, necessitating innovative strengthening techniques. This book explores Near Surface Mounting (NSM) using Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polymer (BFRP) bars for flexural strengthening of RC slabs. BFRP bars offer a lightweight, non-corrosive, and high-strength alternative to steel. Through experimental investigations, the book examines load-deformation behavior, failure modes, and durability of strengthened RC slabs. NSM with BFRP bars enhances load capacity and deformation tolerance, presenting a sustainable solution for modern engineering needs. Aimed at engineers, researchers, and academicians, it provides practical insights and a theoretical foundation for retrofitting and rehabilitation using advanced materials. Gratitude is extended to all contributors. This work aspires to inspire further research and applications, advancing resilient and sustainable infrastructure worldwide.
