Abstract:
Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) materials have good performance such as high strength, high modulus, corrosive resistance, and so on. FRP materials can be used to reinforced reinforcement effects significantly and improve durability of traditional reinforcements. A series of model tests were conducted on foundations reinforced with horizontal FRP reinforcemens. The influence of reinforcement modes on bearing capacity, settlement, strain of FRP and earth pressure were analyzed. From the test results, it was shown that the FRP reinforcement can significantly increase the bearing capacity and reduce the settlement, especially for double-layer reinforcement. And the effects of the anchoring inclusions were little, as compared with the reinforcements.

Abstract:
Steel reinforcements in reinforced concrete structures are susceptible to corrosion under different exposure conditions. This can lead to some disadvantages, including concrete deterioration, reduced long-term service life, increased cost of the structure due to re-strengthening measures, and reduced overall durability of the structure. In order to solve these problems, the issue of comprehensive use of Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcements as an alternative to steel bars is urgent. FRP reinforcements have specific advantages including corrosion resistance, high tensile strength, density four times lighter than steel, and also linear expansion coefficient under the influence of temperature is small like concrete. In order to increase the load bearing capacity and ductility, it is recommended to effectively use steel rebar together with FRP rebar as a combination reinforcement, taking into account brittleness characteristic of FRP reinforcement and low modulus of elasticity. In this article, concrete beams with combined reinforcement are modelled by using ANSYS Workbench 2022 software. By testing virtual model, deflection corresponding to the value of the applied load on the beam, compressive and tensile stresses in the concrete, and stresses in FRP and steel reinforcement located in the tension zone were determined and analyzed.

Abstract:
This paper presents an experimental study on the shear behavior of concrete beams with fiber-reinforced (FRP) composite grating as shear reinforcement. Corrosion resistance and non-magnetic properties of FRP reinforcement allows its use in places where application of regular steel reinforcement would face difficulties. The use of FRP composites can increase the life span of constructions and reduce its maintenance costs. Shear stirrups are more susceptible to harsh conditions, due to their placement at the outer face of the reinforcement, and the use of FRP materials can lead to lower concrete cover thickness and therefore to a more effective design of an element. FRP reinforcements are highly anisotropic material with low strength in the direction perpendicular to the fibers. This causes the strength of a FRP stirrup to be limited by its strength in the bends (corners) of a stirrup. The tensile strength in the corner of the bent stirrup is around 40 to 60% of the strength of the straight bar. FRP grating doesn’t contain a bent section limiting its strength, but its behavior as a shear reinforcement is unknown. The paper contains the results of own experimental research on concrete beams with shear reinforcement made of FRP gratings done at the Faculty of Civil Engineering at the Brno University of Technology. Test specimen consisted of nine beams with different shear reinforcement ratios. Presented experimental data are then compared with the results of tests on beams with regular shear FRP stirrups found in literature.

Abstract:
Abstract In the past, research on the use of FRP in civil engineering has been focused on strengthening existing structures where FRP reinforcements were applied to the surface of concrete elements. Recently, the application of FRP reinforcements has been studied to replace steel reinforcements for use in areas of increased environmental loads, with a need to exclude the corrosion of the reinforcement or to ensure the electromagnetic neutrality of the individual elements of the load-bearing structure. The GFRP reinforcement ratio was verified considering failure modes in flexure and the bond of the GFRP reinforcement with concrete. Besides classical reinforcements, GFRP has also been used in prestressed variants, and the possibility of its use as permanent formwork has been verified. In terms of extending the use of non-metallic reinforcements, it is important to note the long-term exposure and possible degradation of the mechanical properties.

Abstract:
This study systematically investigates the enhancement effects of different fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) materials on the axial compressive performance of concrete. Through experimental evaluations of single-layer, double-layer, and composite FRP reinforcement techniques, the impact of various FRP materials and their combinations on concrete’s axial compressive strength and deformation characteristics was assessed. The results indicate that single-layer CFRP reinforcement significantly improves concrete axial compressive strength and stiffness, while double-layer CFRP further optimizes stress distribution and load-bearing capacity. Among the composite FRP reinforcements, the combination with CFRP as the outer layer demonstrated superior performance in enhancing the overall structural integrity. Additionally, numerical analyses of the mechanical behavior of the reinforced structures were conducted using ABAQUS 2023HF2 finite element software, which validated the experimental findings and elucidated the mechanisms by which FRP influences the internal stress field of concrete. This research provides theoretical support and empirical data for the optimized design and practical application of FRP reinforcement technologies in engineering.

Abstract:
Unlike steel reinforcements in concrete, Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) materials are light and free from corrosion. Therefore, FRP materials are increasingly being used in structural engineering as a replacement for steel reinforcements. While the use of FRP bars as longitudinal reinforcements in concrete deep beams has been studied somewhat widely, their use and effectiveness as web reinforcements are not well studied. In this study, the effect of the FRP web reinforcements on the behaviour and strength of FRP-reinforced concrete deep beams were investigated in an experimental study. Four glass fiber-reinforced concrete (RC) simply supported deep beam specimens were tested under a concentrated load with different shear span-to-depth ratios and web reinforcement ratios. The behaviour of the deep beams was described in terms of load–deflection behaviour, crack developments, strain in FRP reinforcements, and failure modes. The experimental investigation emphasized the significance of web reinforcements in determining the reinforced concrete deep beam behaviour, such as mid-span deflection, crack breadth, failure modes, and ultimate strengths. Furthermore, to predict the behavior of deep beams, numerical Finite Element models using Abaqus software were created. The present test results were compared to those predicted using the Finite Element models. This investigation shows that web reinforcement is quite important for FRP-RC deep beams to achieve a robust behaviour by enhancing its capacity and deformability.

Abstract:
Abstract The paper deals with the possible replacement of steel reinforcement by GFRP reinforcement for concrete elements subjected to bending moment and compressive axial force. For the last 15 years, Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) bars became more popular and commercially available as reinforcement for concrete elements. Composite FRP materials are still new in construction and many engineers are not familiar with their properties and behaviour. FRP has certain advantages over steel reinforcement. It is a durable material that is not subject to corrosion, does not conduct heat, is an electrical insulator and conducts electrical current, and is non-magnetic. In contrast, FRP also has certain deficiencies such as sensitivity to higher temperatures, alkaline environments, and reduction of mechanical properties at high levels of long-term stress. In the case of FRP reinforcements, the plastic branch is missing in the σ-ε diagrams, what leads to a sudden failure of the reinforced concrete element, either by tensile rupture of the reinforcement or by crushing the concrete. The most used FRP reinforcement is made of glass fibres - GFRP reinforcement. The paper deals with the possible replacement of steel reinforcement by GFRP reinforcement for slab and beam elements. The text describes a parametric study for different reinforcement ratio with GFRP reinforcement and steel reinforcement. The study is performed for a cross-section of 500x500 mm for a column element and a cross-section of 1000x250 mm for a slab element. The effect of longitudinal GFRP reinforcement in elements under compression was investigated. The study contains a comparison of interaction P-M diagrams of concrete elements with steel and GFRP reinforcement. For design of GFRP reinforced concrete elements, it is necessary to consider different material characteristics such as tensile strength and modulus of elasticity. The contribution of the GFRP reinforcement in compression was neglected due to the anisotropic nature of the GFRP reinforcement and the low modulus of elasticity. The main reference basis for the elaboration of a parametric study is the fib Bulletin No. 40.

Abstract:
In this paper, an extensive simulation program is conducted to find out the optimal ANN model to predict the shear strength of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) concrete beams containing both flexural and shear reinforcements. For acquiring this purpose, an experimental database containing 125 samples is collected from the literature and used to find the best architecture of ANN. In this database, the input variables consist of 9 inputs, such as the ratio of the beam width, the effective depth, the shear span to the effective depth, the compressive strength of concrete, the longitudinal FRP reinforcement ratio, the modulus of elasticity of longitudinal FRP reinforcement, the FRP shear reinforcement ratio, the tensile strength of FRP shear reinforcement, the modulus of elasticity of FRP shear reinforcement. Thereafter, the selection of the appropriate architecture of ANN model is performed and evaluated by common statistical measurements. The results show that the optimal ANN model is a highly efficient predictor of the shear strength of FRP concrete beams with a maximum R2 value of 0.9634 on the training part and an R2 of 0.9577 on the testing part, using the best architecture. In addition, a sensitivity analysis using the optimal ANN model over 500 Monte Carlo simulations is performed to interpret the influence of reinforcement type on the stability and accuracy of ANN model in predicting shear strength. The results of this investigation could facilitate and enhance the use of ANN model in different real-world problems in the field of civil engineering.

The full acceptance of FRP reinforcement in concrete construction is contingent on a complete study and comprehension of all aspects of their structural performance. This thesis investigates the bond behaviour between Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) reinforcement and concrete. Two experimental programs were conducted. In the first program the role of the variables which affect the bond behaviour was studied through pull-out test. In the second program, GFRP RC members were tested in tension to study their cracking response. To conclude the thesis, a numerical model was developed to simulate the cracking behaviour of RC tensile members. Since the model was flexible enough to include any "user-defined" bond-slip law and variable materials' properties, a parametric study was conducted to analyze which are the variables that influence the cracking behaviour.

Abstract:
The primary objective of this research was to experimentally investigate material and bond properties of three different types of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) bars, and determine their effect on the design of a bridge deck using FRP bars as the top mat of reinforcement. The properties evaluated include the tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, bond behavior, and maximum bond stress. The experimental program included 47 tensile tests and 42 beam end bond tests performed with FRP bars. Tensile strength of the bars from the tensile testing ranged from 529 MPa to 859 MPa. The average modulus, taken from all the testing, for each type of bar was found to range from 40 GPa to 43.7 GPa. The maximum bond stress from the beam end bond tests ranged from 9.17 MPa to 25 MPa. From the tests, design values were found in areas where the properties investigated were related. These design values include design tensile strength, design modulus of elasticity, bond coefficient for deflection calculations, bond coefficient for crack width calculations, and development length. The results and conclusions address design concerns of the different types of FRP bars as applied in the top mat of reinforcement of a bridge deck. A secondary objective was to evaluate the disparity in results between direct pullout tests, and beam end bond tests. Results from the experimentally performed beam end bond test were compared to previous literature involving the direct pullout tests. Results from the performed beam end bond tests were higher than all of the literature using direct pullout results. No recommendations were given on the disparity between the two test methods.<br>Master of Science

Abstract:
Non-corrosive reinforcement of concrete provides great potential for reducing life cycle costs (LCC) of highway infrastructure (bridge decks and columns, light-standards, dividers) and concrete structures near water (piers, retaining walls, platforms). This is especially important in areas where salts are common (cold weather road salting, coastal regions) and is achieved by extending the life of structures and the period between major repairs. Costs of infrastructure rehabilitation due to corrosion of reinforcement are estimated to be $1.2 billion dollars in Ontario in the next few years, and up to 40% of all annual infrastructure costs in the province of Quebec. Efforts to reduce the frequency of repair and replacement of ageing structures include using epoxy coating of the reinforcing bar (rebar), cathodic protection, alternate types of steel and fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) rebar. Of these, FRP rebar appears to be the most promising. The limitation of FRP rebar is the low maximum strain and linear behaviour up to failure. Prior attempts at increasing the ductility and producing non-linear behaviour have had limited success. Maximum strain remains limited to that of the highest strain fibres available. Pseudo-ductility has been achieved by combining multiple fibre types having different material properties. The work described in this thesis focussed on non-traditional methods for achieving ductility in FRP rebars by taking advantage of the frictional interface of two materials. Two methods were tested. The first employed a solid inner-core with an over-wrap cut at regular intervals and relied on the rebar pulling out of the concrete at sustained load. Rods were tested in concrete beams under bending loads. Sustained load was achieved for significant pull-out. The second method combined continuous fibres with discontinuous meso-rods wherein the continuous fibres provide initial stiffness and maximum strength and the discontinuous meso-rods provide high-ductility via fibre pull-out. A concept model using aligned short steel fibres was manufactured and tested. Load-displacement behaviour showed substantial local elongation. Prototype models using carbon fibres were manufactured and tested. Specimens showed evidence of fibre pull-out. Future specimens should employ an intermediate material with a controlled and repeatable shear strength for the interface.

Abstract:
The use of fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) as an internal reinforcement for concrete has many advantages over steel, most notably lack of corrosion which is considered to be a major problem for structures incorporating steel. In Europe alone, it is estimated that the annual repairing and maintenance costs associated with steel corrosion in infrastructure are around £20 billion (Nadjai et al., 2005). Despite of its corrosion resistance, the widespread use of FRP as an internal reinforcement for concrete was hindered due to its relatively weak performance at elevated temperatures, such as in the event of fire. Under heating, the polymer matrix in FRP softens, which causes bond degrading between reinforcement and concrete. The softening of polymer matrices occurs around their glass transition temperatures, which is typically in the range of 65– 150 °C. The sensitivity of FRP bond to temperature is recognised in design guidelines, therefore many advise against utilising FRP as an internal reinforcement for concrete in structures where fire performance is critical. On the other hand, fibres, the other component of FRP, can tolerate temperatures much higher than polymer matrices. This research investigates a new design for FRP internal reinforcement, which exploits the fact that the FRP fibres in general and carbon fibres in particular are capable of sustaining a large proportion of their original strength at high temperatures. Instead of the traditional way of using separate bars, FRP reinforcement was made as closed loops produced through the continuous winding of carbon fibre tows. When the surface bond degrades at elevated temperatures, interaction with concrete can still be provided through bearing at loop ends. The concept of FRP loops was investigated through a series of experimental work. Firstly, the performance of carbon FRP (CFRP) loops was evaluated through a series of push-off tests in which specimens consisting of CFRP loops bridging two concrete cubes were tested in pull-out using hydraulic jacks. Specimens with straight and hooked reinforcement were produced as well for comparison. A total number of 18 specimens were tested at ambient temperature, glass transition temperature (Tg), and above Tg. Results showed that while at ambient temperature there was no distinction in performance. At elevated temperatures, CFRP loops developed strength about three times higher than specimens with straight or hooked bars. Also, while failure mode occurred due to de-bond in the case of straight and hooked reinforcement, rupture failure occurred with CFRP loops. For better demonstration of the concept in more realistic conditions, four-point bending tests were conducted upon 28 beam specimens reinforced either with CFRP loops or straight bars as flexural reinforcement. Beams were tested under monotonic loading at ambient temperature, or under sustained loads with localised heating over the midspan region that contained the reinforcement overlaps. The benefit of CFRP loops became evident in the elevated temperature tests. Beam specimens with spliced straight bars failed due to debonding after a short period (up to 15 minutes) of fire exposure. Conversely, the fire endurance increased four to five times when CFRP loop reinforcement was used. Unlike straight bars, debonding failure was avoided as failure occurred due to reinforcement rupture. The overlap length of the CFRP loops was found to be important in the order for the loop to develop full capacity. Premature failure can occur with short overlap length due to shear off concrete within the overlap zone. The presence of transverse reinforcement increases confinement levels for reinforcement, so the bond failure of straight bars at ambient temperature testing was eliminated when stirrups were provided. However, at elevated temperatures straight bars failed by pull-out even in presence of transverse reinforcement. To facilitate design with CFRP loops, a numerical analysis tool was developed to calculate the bond stress-slip response of reinforcement at ambient and elevated temperatures. A Matlab programme was designed based on a one-dimensional analytical model for steel. The bond law was modified to be used for CFRP reinforcement. Other analytical models from the literature to account for bond degradation with temperature and tensile strength of curved FRP were also utilised. The developed Matlab code has the capability of producing slip, axial stress, and bond stress distribution along reinforcement. The novel FRP loop reinforcement was demonstrated to be a promising solution for enhancing the fire performance of CFRP internal reinforcement at elevated temperatures. It contributes to removing a major obstacle preventing widespread use of FRP-reinforced concrete, and paves the way for CFRP reinforcement to be used in situations where fire performance is critical.

Abstract:
AbstractThis study aims to optimize the carbon fiber-reinforced polymer’s (CFRP) arrangements rather than the amount of secondary steel reinforcements for strengthening reinforced concrete (RC) corbels, utilizing finite element (FE) analysis. While previous studies have only examined different types of FRP sheet arrangement in the absence or presence of equal amount of secondary steel reinforcements, this research fills a gap by comparing the effect of different configurations with the Externally Bonded Reinforcement (EBR) installation method and increasing the amount of the secondary steel reinforcements. Verification was conducted using a fully horizontally wrapped strengthened RC corbel with the secondary steel reinforcement. Results indicate that by just differing the arrangements of CFRP sheets, an increase can cause up to 33% in bearing capacity with the same volume of CFRP. However, by increasing the geometrical secondary steel reinforcement ratio (ρsh) from 0.18% of the verified model to 0.33% and 0.52%; the bearing capacity increases by 5.52% and 11.55%, respectively.

Abstract:
The consequences of global warming are becoming increasingly disastrous. Nowadays, our society has the responsibility of reducing the energy consumed in the building sector. In order to reduce this 40% of emissions, applying sustainable development criteria is fundamental throughout the life of materials in construction. More specifically, the use of steel corrugated bars or rods as reinforcement is the most widely used product in concrete reinforcement, and it is therefore important to reduce its climate impact. Basalt Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRP) is a promising alternative to replace these steel reinforcements due to its high strength, low weight and high durability capabilities.This work compares different rebars in sustainable terms in an initial phase. Four different materials are studied: steel, stainless steel, glass FRP and basalt FRP. To check and verify the different geometrical and mechanical properties, four rods of each material are tested in the laboratory. Finally, an analysis and comparison of various sustainability aspects is carried out. The aim of this research is to find out which reinforcing bar is the most sustainable and whether the basalt FRP rod is as optimal as it promises to be.

Abstract:
Engineers and ecologists continue to explore new methods and adapt existing techniques to improve highway mitigation measures that increase motorist safety and conserve wildlife species. Crossing structures, overpasses and underpasses, combined with fences, are some of the most highly effective mitigation measures employed around the world to reduce wildlife-vehicle collisions (WVCs) with large animals, increase motorist safety, and maintain habitat connectivity across transportation networks for many other types and sizes of wildlife. Published research on structural designs and materials for wildlife crossings is limited and suggests relatively little innovation has occurred. Wildlife crossing structures for large mammals are crucial for many highway mitigation strategies, so there is a need for new, resourceful, and innovative techniques to construct these structures. This report explored the promising application of fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) to a wildlife crossing using an overpass. The use of FRP composites has increased due to their high strength and light weight characteristics, long service life, and low maintenance costs. They are highly customizable in shape and geometry and the materials used (e.g., resins and fibers) in their manufacture. This project explored what is known about FRP bridge structures and what commercial materials are available in North America that can be adapted for use in a wildlife crossing using an overpass structure. A 12-mile section of US Highway 97 (US-97) in Siskiyou County, California was selected as the design location. Working with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), a site was selected for the FRP overpass design where it would help reduce WVCs and provide habitat connectivity. The benefits of a variety of FRP materials have been incorporated into the US-97 crossing design, including in the superstructure, concrete reinforcement, fencing, and light/sound barriers on the overpass. Working with Caltrans helped identify the challenges and limitations of using FRP materials for bridge construction in California. The design was used to evaluate the life cycle costs (LCCs) of using FRP materials for wildlife infrastructure compared to traditional materials (e.g., concrete, steel, and wood). The preliminary design of an FRP wildlife overpass at the US-97 site provides an example of a feasible, efficient, and constructible alternative to the use of conventional steel and concrete materials. The LCC analysis indicated the preliminary design using FRP materials could be more cost effective over a 100-year service life than ones using traditional materials.
