Fibres for enhancing of the bond capacity between GFRP rebar and concrete [PDF]
The effect of steel fibres (SF) and macro-polypropylene fibres (PPA) on the bond capacity between GFRP rebar and concrete has been studied in this work. A novel method using the equivalent bond strength to evaluate the bond toughness is proposed.

Enhancements in Performance and Manufacturing Efficiencies of GFRP Rebar
Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcing rebar with non-corrosive property is suggested as an alternative replacement to steel reinforcing rebar due to its enhanced durability and non-corrosive characteristics. Currently, a limited number of glass fiber reinforced polymer rebar (GFRP) are sold commercially due to their high cost, relatively low ...

Static and Flexural Fatigue Behavior of GFRP Pultruded Rebars [PDF]
This paper presents the experimental results of composite rebars based on GFRP manufactured by a pultrusion system. The bending and radial compression strength of rods was determined. The elastic modulus of GFRP rebars is significantly lower than for steel rebars, while the static flexural properties are higher.

Bond Strength Properties of GFRP and CFRP according to Concrete Strength
Reinforced concrete is the most commonly used material in the construction industry. However, one disadvantage of reinforced concrete is that environmental factors cause materials to penetrate the concrete and cause steel bar corrosion.
