Experimental study and code predictions of fibre reinforced polymer reinforced concrete (FRP RC) tensile members
Due to their different mechanical properties, cracking and deformability behaviour of FRP RC (fiber reinforced polymer reinforced concrete) members is quite different from traditional SRC (steel reinforced concrete) having great incidence on their serviceability design. This paper presents and discusses the results of an experimental programme concerning concrete tension members reinforced with GFRP (glass fibre reinforced polymer) bars. The main aim of the study is to evaluate the response of GFRP reinforced concrete (GFRP RC) tension members in terms of cracking and deformations. The results show the dependence of load-deformation response and crack spacing on the reinforcement ratio. The experimental results are compared to prediction models from codes and guidelines (ACI and Eurocode 2) and the suitability of the different approaches for predicting the behaviour of tensile members is analysed and discussed.
