Precast tunnel segments with GFRP reinforcement

Tunnelling and Underground Space Technology, 2016
Abstract The possibility of substituting the traditional steel reinforcement with Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) bars in precast segmental lining tunnels is investigated herein. The use of this kind of reinforcement in tunnel segments allows several advantages mainly related to durability aspects or when provisional lining is forecast ...

Deflection of GFRP-reinforced concrete beams

Journal of Composite Materials, 2021
This paper presents an investigation of the performance of concrete beams reinforced with glass fiber-reinforced polymers (GFRP) under short-term loading. A total of six specimens with rectangular cross-sections (75 mm in height and 150 mm in width) were tested under a four-point bending test to failure. Each specimen was reinforced with two GFRP bars

Fatigue Behaviour of GFRP Reinforced Beams

Solid State Phenomena, 2021
This article deals with the influence of fatigue loading on the behaviour of GFRP (Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymers) reinforced concrete elements. The aim of the experimental programme is to quantify the effect of fatigue loading on the mechanical properties of GFRP reinforced beams subjected to flexure.

Bond of GFRP Reinforcement with Concrete

Key Engineering Materials, 2016
Corrosion of steel reinforcement is the major cause of deterioration of existing RC structures. Combined effects of moisture, temperature, and chlorides reduce the alkalinity of concrete and exacerbate the corrosion of steel reinforcement, especially for concrete structures subjected to aggressive environments, such as marine structures and bridges and

GFRP Reinforced Concrete Bridge Decks

2000
This report investigates the application of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) rebars in concrete bridge decks as a potential replacement or supplement to conventional steel rebars. Tests were conducted to determine the material properties of the GFRP reinforcement, and experiments were performed to study aspects of GFRP rebar placement in actual ...

Numerical Modelling of GFRP Reinforced Thin Concrete Slabs

2020
With the development of new glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars for RC structures, their application extends simultaneously. The non-corrosive nature of GFRP bars enables maximal lowering of the concrete cover, thus making them very suitable as a reinforcement in thin RC plate elements.
