Experimental investigation for GFRP rebar couplers for reinforced concrete
The use of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) rebars is nowadays becoming popular in reinforced concrete (RC) construction due to their excellent inherent properties such as corrosion resistance, lightweight, and high strength to weight ratio.

Effect of GFRP Stirrup Confinement on the Bond Strength of GFRP-RC Beams [PDF]
The current provisions for development length in the ACI 440.11 code disregard the confinement effect provided by stirrups on the bond strength of longitudinal bars and require splice lengths that pose implementation challenges.

Performance of hybrid glass/steel fibre self-compacting concrete beams under static flexural loading [PDF]
In this paper, it is proposed to study the static flexural performance of hybrid (glass and steel) fiber reinforced M30 grade self-compacting concrete (SCC) beams made with glass fiber reinforcement polymer (GFRP) re-bars.

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.

Numerical investigation of GFRP bars contribution on performance of concrete structural elements [PDF]
In this study, twenty glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) reinforced concrete specimens were modelled using finite element method to predict the effect of GFRP compressive bars on the flexural strength and ductility of GFRP reinforced concrete beams ...

Seismic performance of ductile corrosion-free reinforced concrete frames
Corrosion of steel bars is the main cause of the deterioration of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. To avoid this problem, steel rebars can be replaced with glass-fiber-reinforced-polymer (GFRP).
