Two-Way Shear Strength of GFRP-Reinforced Precast Concrete Box Culverts under Vertical Concentrated Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate the two-way shear strength of precast concrete box culverts reinforced with glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars. The investigations included testing four full-scale ...
Cracking and Crack Control in Circular Concrete Bridge Members Reinforced with Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Bars
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Serviceability requirements are crucial in the design of fiber-reinforced-polymer (FRP) RC bridge members. Permissible crack width under service loads is one of the requirements that can control design. Crack-control models ...
Strength and Deformability Aspects of Circular Concrete Members Reinforced with Hybrid Carbon-FRP and Glass-FRP under Flexure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Although the flexural behavior of fiber-reinforced-polymer (FRP) reinforced-concrete (RC) members has been the focus of many studies in recent years, no research work has examined such behavior in FRP-RC members with ...
Contribution of Closed Ties to Shear Strength of GFRP-Reinforced Precast Concrete Tunnel Lining Segments: Experimental and Analytical Study
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Current tunnel design provisions do not consider the shear resistance of transverse reinforcement in precast concrete tunnel lining (PCTL) segments. Such reinforcement is often designed as a minimum for shrinkage and ...
Long-Term Durability of Nonpultruded Curvilinear GFRP Bars Exposed to an Alkaline Environment: Experimental Studies and Modeling
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The use of curvilinear glass fiber‒reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars as the longitudinal reinforcement in curved reinforced concrete (RC) elements has generated significant interest. Even so, there is a lack of comprehensive ...
Experimental and Analytical Behavior of GFRP-Reinforced Concrete Box Girders under Pure Torsion
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Concrete box girders are significant structural elements in various engineering applications due to higher torsional stiffness and low self-weight. The use of glass fiber–reinforced polymers (GFRPs) as internal bars has ...
Softened Membrane Torsional Model for GFRP–Reinforced Concrete Bridge Box Girders
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study investigates the experimental and analytical torsional behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) bridge box girders reinforced with glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars and continuous spiral stirrups, representing ...
Experimental and Analytical Study on Precast High-Strength Concrete Tunnel Lining Segments Reinforced with GFRP Bars
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Replacing steel reinforcement with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) reinforcement is an effective solution to avoid the corrosion problem in precast concrete tunnel-lining (PCTL) segments. In addition, using high-strength ...
Design, Construction, Testing, and Behavior of Driven Precast Concrete Piles Reinforced with GFRP Bars and Spirals
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Marine, coastal structures, and bridges deteriorate prematurely due to corrosion. Numerous failures have occurred in substructure members of these structures, such as piles, leading to very high repair and replacement ...
