Numerical analysis on reinforcement ratio of RC beams using FRP and steel rebars

Reinforced Concrete Structures, traditionally using steel rebars, are vulnerable to corrosion under severe exposure conditions. This can result in several drawbacks such as concrete deterioration, reduced serviceability, increased maintenance costs, and structural durability. To counter these issues, Fibre Polymer bars have emerged another possibility material for bars. FRP anti-corrosive, high tensile strength, weigh one-fourth of bars, a low thermal expansion coefficient similar concrete. enhance both load-carrying capacity ductility, combining has been effectively used because having brittle behaviour. paper studies theoretical investigations Reinforcement ratio when Fiber reinforcement beams with Af As 1 which balance Flexural ductility.
