Abstract

The various rib geometry of hybrid fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcing bars were analyzed by finite element method. From the analysis result, two types of hybrid FRP reinforcing bars such as spiral and cross type with the same dimension of rib geometry were fabricated in this study. To evaluate the bond properties of them, direct pull-out test was performed. All testing procedures including specimens preparation, set-up of test equipments and measuring devices were made in accordance with the recommendations of CSA Standard S806-02. From the test results, it was found that cross type hybrid FRP reinforcing bars showed the highest bond strength than that of the others due to the higher relative rib area.
