Response of Concrete Beams Reinforced with GFRP Bars Under Static Loads
Abstract Reinforced Concrete (RC) structures are susceptible to the corrosion of steel reinforcing bars in aggressive environments. In the last few decades, Glass Fibre-Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) bars have emerged as a suitable replacement for the steel reinforcing bars in RC structures due to their corrosion resistance, chemical resistance, and high strength-to-weight ratio. The response of GFRP bar Reinforced Concrete (GFRP-RC) beams varies significantly from the behaviour of steel bar reinforced concrete beams. This paper numerically investigates the response of GFRP-RC beams under static loads. The results of the numerical modelling have been validated against the experimental results of six GFRP-RC beams and were found to be in good agreement with the experimental results. Also, a parametric study is carried out to investigate the effects of the reinforcement ratio, compressive strength of concrete, and shear span to effective depth ratio on the response of GFRP-RC beams under static loads.
