In recent years, fiber‐reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have been widely used as a new
type of high‐performance material in concrete structures. FRP composites have the …

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) has become a practical alternative construction material for
replacing steel bars as reinforcement in concrete structures. However, the brittleness of FRP …

Ductility plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety of a structure, as its inadequacy can lead
to sudden and brittle failure. Despite its significance, there is no explicit method for …

Corrosion of the steel reinforcement in a cold and saline environment leads to the overall
deterioration of reinforced concrete structures. To avoid such deterioration, fiber-reinforced …

A new ductile hybrid fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) bar has been developed at Drexel
University. This new bar is unique in that it has equivalent bilinear stress-strain …

Using locally available raw materials, such as seawater, sea sand, and coral reefs, for
construction on remote islands is conducive to saving costs and shortening the construction …

Concrete beams reinforced with a combination of steel and fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)
bars can provide increased strength, serviceability, and durability. However, the amounts of …

Prestressing fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) bars is widely acknowledged as an effective
method for exploiting their high strength. However, compared to FRP reinforced concrete …

The objective of this paper is to provide an overview of the state of the art concerning the
structural behavior of concrete beams externally reinforced with Fiber Reinforced Polymers …

The flexural behavior of concrete beams reinforced with a combination of basalt fiber–
reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars and steel bars is investigated herein. Five hybrid BFRP and …
