Impact Testing on Reinforced Concrete Slab with Bfrp Bars as Reinforcement

International Journal of Engineering and Advanced Technology, 2019
Basalt Fibre Reinforced Polymer (BFRP) bar is an alternative to steel and glass fibre for reinforced concrete. Their unique characteristics makes them favourable compared to the other alternative materials. According to previous studies the BFRPbars are lighter and stronger than steel and has higher bending strength.
