Bending behavior of concrete T-beams reinforced with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars
Concrete slabs are integrally cast with girders or stringers (stiffening system) resulting in floor slabs, bridge decks, footers, retaining structures and others. A portion of slab between a stiffening system acts as flange and bends in unison with the stiffening system, i.e., classic T-beam …

Performance of a Bridge Deck with Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) Bars as the Top Mat of Reinforcement
… investigate the effectiveness and durability of GFRP bars as reinforcement for concrete decks. Today's rapid bridge deck deterioration is calling for a replacement for steel reinforcement. The advantages of GFRP such as its high tensile strength, light weight, and resistance to corrosion make it …

Strength Degradation of Gfrp Bars
… was to examine the strength degradation of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) bars at high temperature and alkalinity and determine if an Arrhenius type relationship can be used as a means of projecting life. The work done includes a thorough literature review, experiments and development …

Development of high-performance fiber-reinforced link slabs for jointless bridge decks
The purpose of this study of high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composite (HPFRCC) reinforced with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars was to investigate its use as link slabs to replace the expansion joints commonly found in bridge decks. Numerous small scale test specimens and …
