Abstract: Several standards and guidelines allow the use of the equivalent rectangular stress block (ERSB) as a simple concept to accurately predict flexural strength with or without axial force. North American codes (ACI 318 and ...

Abstract: Abstract Basalt fiber–reinforced polymer (BFRP) reinforcing bars have become a viable substitute for conventional steel reinforcement in concrete structures, primarily due to their exceptional resistance to corrosion and ...

Abstract: Abstract While the bridge design codes and standards provide provisions for designing concrete bridge members reinforced with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars, the axial–flexural behavior of fibrous self-consolidating ...
