Error in Figure

In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Figure 10. Damage index (DI) evolution with increasing story drift (SD%) for the first, second, and third loading cycles. The unstrengthened specimen JB0V (red, dashed) shows the highest DI at large drifts, while JB0VF2X2c (blue, solid) performs better due to C-FRP ropes. JB0VF2X2c + C-FRP (green, solid) achieves the lowest DI growth, confirming the effectiveness of combined joint and beam strengthening, as published. The corrected Figure 10 appears below:
Figure 10. Evolution of the damage index with increasing story drift (SD%) for the tested specimens. The retrofitted joints show significantly lower DI growth compared to the unstrengthened specimen.

The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
