Finite Element Analysis of Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer-(GFRP) Reinforced Continuous Concrete Beams [PDF]
Polymers, 2021 Fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) is a competitive solution for the durability of reinforced structures. This paper aims to observe the moment redistribution behavior occurring due to flexural and shear loading in Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer- (GFRP) reinforced continuous concrete beams.

Buckling Analysis of Pultruded Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) Angle Sections [PDF]
Polymers, 2020 Glass fiber reinforced polymers (GFRP), with their advantage of corrosion resistance, have potential to be used as structural members in civil engineering constructions. Pultruded GFRP angle section trusses could be used instead of steel sections in remote areas and in areas prone to corrosion.

Experimental Study on the Structural Performance of Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Slabs Reinforced with Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) Bars: A Sustainable Alternative to Steel in Challenging Environments [PDF]
PolymersThe inherent brittleness of glass-fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars limits their structural applicability despite their corrosion resistance and lightweight properties. This study addresses the critical challenge of enhancing the ductility and crack resistance of GFRP-reinforced systems while maintaining their environmental resilience.

Evaluation on material behaviors of pultruded glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) laminates [PDF]
Composite Structures, 2017 Abstract In order to extend the use of pultruded glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite materials in civil engineering, a systematic study on pultruded GFRP laminate is important and realistic for the design and construction of GFRP structures in bridge engineering. A practical method to evaluate the fiber volume fractions and the equivalent

Remediation of Punching Shear Failure Using Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) Rods. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel), 2021 The results of an experimental program on shear-strengthening of flat slabs using Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) rods are presented. A total of seven specimens were tested under an upward concentric monotonic loading until failure. One specimen served as a control and was tested without any modification.

Punching Shear Behavior of Two-Way Concrete Slabs Reinforced with Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) Bars. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel), 2018 This study investigated the punching shear behavior of full-scale, two-way concrete slabs reinforced with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars, which are known as noncorrosive reinforcement. The relatively low modulus of elasticity of GFRP bars affects the large deflection of flexural members, however, applying these to two-way concrete slabs can
