A NEW APPROACH TO TENSILE TESTING OF GFRP BARS
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.

GFRP Bars Anchorage Resistance in a GFRP-Reinforced Concrete Bridge Barrier. [PDF]
In the present paper, experimental and numerical investigations were conducted on concrete bridge barriers utilizing glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars with a hook at their ends. Implementation of these hooked bars instead of the bent bars or headed-end bars in the bridge barriers presented in the Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code (CHBDC) was

Development Length of GFRP Bars [PDF]
The objective of this study was to propose a development length equation for GFRP bars. A total of 104 modified pullout tests were completed while the test variables were embedment length (15, 30, ), net cover thickness (), top-cast bar effect, different GFRP bar types (K2KR, K3KR and AsUS), and bar diameters (10, 13, 16 mm). Average bond stresses were

Flexural Behaviour of GFRP Bars [PDF]
Reinforced Cement Concrete RCC structures are usually reinforced with steel bars which are subjected to corrosion at critical temperatures and atmospheric conditions. Also the cost of steel reinforcement plays a significant role in any RCC construction. The rising prices of steel and their unavailability throughout the year have brought the contractors

It became common practice to utilize near-surface mounted (NSM) bars to improve the shear capacity of steel-reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Consequently, carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) is usually used to improve RC beams' shear performance ...

Optimization of Concrete Beams Reinforced with GFRP Bars [PDF]
Members with GFRP bars exhibit different behavior from those with steel bars due to the brittle and low elastic modulus of the GFRP bars. However, there are limited studies considering the optimum design of reinforced concrete members with GFRP bars ...

Combined Effects of Curing Temperatures and Alkaline Concrete on Tensile Properties of GFRP Bars
A significant number of studies have been conducted on the tensile properties of GFRP bars embedded in concrete under different environments. However, most of these studies have been experimentally based on the environmental immersion test after standard-
