Heat Transfer Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Beams Reinforced with GFRP Bars

Workshop Presentation Infrastructure Applications of Frp Composites Behaviour of High Strength Concrete Columns Reinforced with Gfrp Bars and Helices under Different Loading Conditions

The use of Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) bars is considered an alternative option in reinforcing concrete structures instead of conventional steel bars especially in harsh severe environments, due to their mechanical properties and physical characteristics. GFRP bars offer many advantages over steel counterparts such as corrosion resistance, high tensile strength, low weight and electro...

Flexural Behavior of Lightweight Concrete Beams Reinforced with GFRP Bars and Effects of the Added Micro and Macro Fiber

This study evaluated the effect of macro steel fiber (SF), micro glass fiber (GF) and micro polypropylene fiber (PF) in lightweight aggregate concrete, (LWAC) beams reinforced with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars. Firstly, concrete mixtures with different volume fractions of GF, PF and SF were tested up to compressive strength, then determine the optimum fiber content GF, PF and SF a...

Numerical Study on the Flexural Behaviour of Concrete Beams Reinforced by GFRP Bars

Enhancement of the response of reinforced concrete (RC) beams using fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement bars has become a popular structural technique over the past two decades due to the well-known advantages of FRP composites including their high strength-to-weight ratio and excellent corrosion resistance. Thisstudy presents n...

Finite Element Modeling of GFRP-Reinforced Concrete Interior Slab-Column Connections Subjected to Moment Transfer

A finite element model (FEM) was constructed using specialized three-dimensional (3D) software to investigate the punching shear behavior of interior slab-column connections subjected to a moment-to-shear ratio of 0.15 m. The FEM was then verified against the experimental results of full-scale interior slab-column connections reinforced with glass fiber reinforcement polymer (GFRP) bars previou...
