This paper presents a literature review on the use of polymer coatings in strengthening reinforced concrete and masonry structures against the effects of blast. The use of glass and carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (GFRP and CFRP) in blast strengthening applications has been studied very well in the past two decades. However, experimental and numerical studies of polymer coatings used in blast strengthening applications are scarce in literature. This paper compiles the available experimental and numerical studies that utilized polymer coatings as protective layers, including, but not limited to, polyurea and polyurethane spray-on polymers.
