The deformability of concrete beams reinforced with GFRP and combined (hybrid) reinforcement

Abstract

The deformability of concrete beams reinforced with GFRP and combined (hybrid) reinforcement

P.P. Polskoy, H. Mervat, A. Mihoub

In this article considered the questions related to how the deformability is influenced in concrete beams, in which steel reinforcement replaced with fiberglass GFRP or a combination (hybrid). The latter is very important, as the current standards do not account the increased in strength of composite reinforcement, whereas its elasticity modulus is lower than the elasticity modulus of steel reinforcement.
