Torsional behavior of GFRP-reinforced concrete pontoon decks with and without an edge cutout

, 2023
Using glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars in precast concrete pontoon decks in aggressive marine environments would eliminate corrosion problems encountered with steel reinforcement.

Using four-point flexure test to investigate effects of temperature and bar size on the tensile properties of GFRP bars

Polymer Testing, 2022
Glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars have been increasingly used in structures due to their advantages However, the effect of temperature variation is likely to degrade their mechanical behavior. In this experimental study, the tensile strength and

Comparative durability of GFRP composite reinforcing bars in concrete and in simulated concrete environments

, 2021
Many studies suggest that the durability of glass-fiber-reinforced-polymer (GFRP) bars in a simulated concrete pore solution is very different than the same bars in an actual concrete environment.

Condition assessment of concrete and glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) rebar after 18 years of service life

Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2021
Concrete and glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bar samples from an 18-year old repair project executed on an existing dry-dock were obtained by coring the dry dock in two regions.

A NEW APPROACH TO TENSILE TESTING OF GFRP BARS

Eskişehir Osmangazi Üniversitesi Mühendislik ve Mimarlık Fakültesi Dergisi, 2023
Tensile testing is a critical procedure for evaluating the mechanical properties of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) bars, which emerged as an alternative to traditional steel reinforcement in reinforced concrete structures. While significant research has led to the development of testing standards for GFRP bars, their implementation often ...

Experimental investigation of bond behaviour of two common GFRP bar types in high-strength concrete [PDF]

, 2018
YesAlthough several research studies have been conducted on investigating the bond stress - slip behaviour of Glass-Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) bars embedded in high strength concrete (HSC) using a pull-out method, there is no published work on the ...

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Steel- and GFRP-Reinforced Concrete Beams Subject to Fire Exposure

Buildings, 2023
This study investigates the behavior of three concrete beams reinforced with steel and GFRP bars under fire exposure. The fire tests of three beams were conducted including one control steel-reinforced concrete (RC) beam and two GFRP-RC beams.

On the Factors That Determine the Bond Behaviour of GFRP Bars to Concrete: An Experimental Investigation

Buildings, 2023
It is becoming accepted that glass-fibre-reinforced polymer (GFRP) is a credible and effective replacement for steel in reinforced concrete (RC) to meet structural requirements whilst addressing durability concerns posed by steel over the long term.

Mode of failure for reinforced concrete beams with GFRP bars

Journal of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2016
Crack propagation in concrete structures is a very complicated process. An experimental method to predict the stress distribution of a cracked GFRP reinforced concrete flexural beam is presented. The beam subjected to four-point bending is internally reinforced with unidirectional GFRP bars.
