Full-Scale Flexural Testing on Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Poles [PDF]

open access: yesThe Open Civil Engineering Journal, 2007
An extensive research project is currently carried out at the University of Sherbrooke to develop and evaluate the flexural behavior of lightweight fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) poles. In this project, a total of 23 full-scale prototypes of FRP poles with length ranging from 5 to 12 m were submitted to static flexural testing.
