Replacement of steel rebars by GFRP rebars in the concrete structures
Karbala International Journal of Modern Science, 2018 Abstract Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) has been confirmed to be the solution as a major development in strengthened concrete technology. Synthesis of GFRP rebars by using the longitudinal glass fibers (reinforcement material) and unsaturated polyester resin with 1% MEKP (matrix material) via manual process.

Evaluation of the Bond-to-Concrete Properties of GFRP Rebars in Marine Environments [PDF]
Infrastructures, 2018 Increased traffic in combination with growing environmental impacts have led to the accelerated degradation of built infrastructure. In reinforced concrete structures, the corrosion of steel reinforcement is the predominant cause of deterioration.

Static and Flexural Fatigue Behavior of GFRP Pultruded Rebars [PDF]
Materials, 2021 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.

Modification of Rule of Mixtures for Tensile Strength Estimation of Circular GFRP Rebars. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel), 2017 The rule of mixtures (ROM) method is often used to estimate the tensile strength of fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) reinforcing bars (rebars). Generally, the ROM method predicts the FRP rebars’ modulus of elasticity adequately but overestimates their tensile strength.
