Numerical calibration of bond laws for GFRP bars embedded in steel fiber-reinforced self-compacting concrete [PDF]
An experimental program was carried out at the Laboratory of Structural Division of the Civil Engineering Department of the University of Minho (LEST-UM) to investigate the bond behaviour of glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars embedded in steel ...

Steel–Mortar and Flexural Mortar–Mortar Bond Strengths of Metakaolin‐Based Geopolymer
Metakaolin‐based geopolymer mortar demonstrated significantly higher interfacial bond strength than cement mortar across both mortar–mortar and steel–mortar testing, with performance influenced by interface transition zone (ITZ) roughness and curing age.

A Review on Structural Behavior, Design, and Application of Ultra-High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete [PDF]
An overall review of the structural behaviors of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) elements subjected to various loading conditions needs to be conducted to prevent duplicate research and to promote its practical applications ...

Abstract The availability of fiber‐reinforced polymers (FRP) as an alternative for conventional steel reinforcement in concrete construction is increasing. To widen the scope of application, for example, in the case of prestressing, and to improve the bond behavior at the bar ends, end anchorages need to be considered.

Confinement model for circular concrete columns transversely reinforced with GFRP spirals and hoops
In many applications, bars made of Glass-Fiber-Reinforced-Polymer (GFRP) have successfully replaced steel rebars and become a practical substitute for shear and flexural reinforcement in reinforced concrete (RC) members.

Investigation of the effect of fibers on bond properties between self-consolidating concrete and GFRP rebars [PDF]
This study evaluated the effect of different fiber types (macro steel fibers, macro PP-fibers and micro PP-fibers) on the bond properties between self-consolidating concrete matrix and glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) rebars.

Poststrengthening Remote Monitoring in Practice: A Case Study of RC Structure Renovation
Reinforced concrete (RC) structures are widespread globally, requiring systematic monitoring and proactive maintenance due to ageing, evolving demands and environmental exposure. Prolonging the service life of existing RC structures to meet modern requirements promotes sustainability by reducing waste, conserving resources and minimising environmental ...

This work examines the performance of no web reinforced concrete beams with novel spliced longitudinal steel bars and enhanced by wrapped CFRP sheet subjected to pure torque. The spliced bars were of insufficient length to show the substandard state and were treated with a new method of enhancing the splice region by wrapping CFRP sheet transversely ...
