An Experimental Study on Flexural Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Beams with GFRP Bars and Recycled Coarse Aggregate
Abstract:
This study evaluates the flexural performance of reinforced concrete beams with GFRP(Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer) bars and RCA(Recycled Coarse Aggregates). A total of four specimens with various replacement ratios of RCA (0%, 30%, 50%, and 100%) were tested. An investigation was performed on the influence of RCA with various replacement ratios on load-carrying capacity, post cracking stiffness, cracking pattern, and ductility. The test results showed that replacement ratios of RCA had not a bad effect on concrete compressive strength or flexural strength of beams. They were compared with the design flexural strength and the nominal moment predictions of ACI Code.
