Experimental Study on the Flexural Property of GFRP I-Beam

Article Preview

Abstract:

The glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) I-beams were tested under the third-point static loading. The load, mid-span deflection and failure modes were recorded during the flexural test. The flexural property was analyzed. The test results indicate that local buckling result in failure of integral structure. The local stability of flange plate is one of the main factors that affect the overall bending capacity of GFRP I-beams. Local strengthening should be adopted in the flange-web joint.
