Experimental Study on Flexural Deformation Behavior of Concrete Beams Reinforced with GFRP Bars

Abstract:

In this paper, the deflection of GFRP bars reinforced beams with different reinforcement ratio was studied, To research deflection of GFRP reinforced beam, four specimen beams were test under a four-point static load. The results indicate that deflection history of GFRP bar reinforced concrete beam is different with steel reinforced concrete’s, which has two stages: the linear part before crack and linear part after crack. The ultimate deflection decreases with the increase of reinforcement ratio.
