Engineering Performance of Concrete Beams Reinforced with GFRP Bars and Stainless steel
Published In: GJRE Part: E: Civil & Structural Volume: 12 Issue: 1 Corrosion of steel reinforcement is one of the main problems facing the construction industries throughout the world. Many methods have been used to minimize the problem but without success. Thus, more durable reinforcements are highly needed to replace conventional steel. Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) bars provide a good alternative reinforcement due to its non-corrodible charac...
