Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have gained increasing recognition and
application in the field of civil engineering in recent decades due to their notable mechanical …

This paper investigates the ability of steel fibers to enhance the short-term behavior and
flexural performance of realistic steel fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) structural members …

This paper investigates the flexural behavior, deflection, and cracking of concrete beams
reinforced with GFRP bars. For this purpose, 20 simply supported concrete beams with the …

Abstract Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRPs) have emerged as an alternative to steel for
Reinforced Concrete (RC) elements in aggressive environments. The low modulus of …

Present research experimentally and theoretically investigates deformations and tension-
stiffening in concrete beams with different types of reinforcement. The paper reports test …

Due to the mechanical properties of fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) bars, deflections often
drive the design of FRP reinforced concrete (RC) flexural members. This has led to an …

Abstract Serviceability Limit States (SLS) may govern the design of concrete elements
internally reinforced with Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) bars because of the mechanical …

This paper presents an experimental study aimed at investigating the long-term tension
stiffening and flexural behaviour of concrete elements reinforced with glass fibre reinforced …

Sustained load effects on steel reinforced concrete structures due to creep and shrinkage in
the concrete have been widely studied. However, knowledge of behaviour under sustained …

The present study pertains to the influence of variation of FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymer)
proportion in tension reinforcement on the flexural behavior of RC beams with FRP and steel …
