The purpose of this study is to estimate the contribution of concrete and shear reinforcement, in shear carrying capacity, on concrete beams, reinforced with steel and/or FRP rods. The experimental tests for 12 concrete beams, reinforced with steel and/or FRP rods, are carried out. Experimental parameters includes the mechanical properties of reinforcements in shear and bending, and the ratio of shear reinforcement. This study compares the experimental results of shear carrying capacity in concrete beams, reinforced with steel and/or FRP rods, with the proposed equations. According to the experimental results, the effect of the concrete in concrete beams reinforced with FRP rods is decreased with decreasing Young's modulus of longitudinal tensile reinforcement. This results from the large deflection of concrete beams reinforced with decreasing Young's modulus of longitudinal tensile reinforcement. Also, the contribution of shear reinforcement is smaller than the calculated value, using the truss analogy. This results from the fact that the stress redistribution is not exhibited after the break of shear reinforcement.

Fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) rods are used as reinforcement (prestressed or not) to concrete. FRP composites can also be combined with steel to form hybrid reinforcing rods that take advantage of the properties of both materials. In order to effectively utilize these rods, their bond behavior with concrete must be understood. The objective of this study is to characterize and model the bond behavior of hybrid FRP rods made with epoxy-impregnated aramid or poly-vinyl alcohol FRP skins directly braided onto a steel core. The model closely examines the split failure of the concrete by quantifying the relationship between slip of the rods resulting transverse stress field in concrete. The model is used to derive coefficients of friction for these rods and, from these, their development length requirements. More testing is needed to confirm this model, but in the interim, it may serve as a design aide, allowing intelligent decisions regarding concrete cover and development length. As such, this model has helped to explain and predict some experimental data from concentric pull-out tests of hybrid FRP rods.

The properties of FRP usually depends on the fabricating method. The fiber orientation of FRP is also depends on the fabricating method. The fiber orientation in FRP has a great effect on the strength of FRP because the strength of FRP mainly depends on the strength of fiber. In this study. compressive and bending strength of FRP rods were investigated. Inner part of FRP was made unidirectionally by pultrusion method and outer part of FRP was made by wrapping method. The size effect was also investigated with pultruded FRP rods.

Fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) rods provide certain benefits over steel as concrete reinforcement, such as corrosion resistance, magnetic and electrical insulation, light weight, and high strength. FRP composites can be combined with a steel core to form hybrid reinforcing rods that take advantage of properties of both materials. The objective of this study was to characterize the bond behavior of hybrid FRP rods made with braided epoxy-impregnated aramid or poly-vinyl alcohol FRP skins. Eleven rod types were tested using two concrete strengths. Specific topics examined were bond strength, slip, and type of failure in concentric pull-out tests from concrete cubes. From analysis of identical pull-out tests on both hybrid and steel rods, information on relative bond strength and behavior were obtained. It is concluded that strength is similar but slip in hybrid rods is much higher. Hybrid rods failed either by pull-out or splitting the concrete block (with or without yielding of the steel core). Experimental data showed consistency with similar test results presented in the literature.

In order to overcome the brittle failure of strengthening with FRP-rebars inherent to their brittle properties, two approaches have been attempted. One is to improve the properties like ductile Hybrid FRP Rods, and the other is to develop a ductile strengthening with partially unbonded FRP rebars. Experiments on real size specimen were performed to evaluate the performance of NSM (Near Surface Mounted Strengthening) and SIM (Section Increment Methods) with FRP rebars. This paper discusses the results of the tests on 8 slab specimen in terms of flexural resistance, ductility, and fatigue. They show that NSM or S1M with FRP rebars are very effective measures to strengthen existing RC structures. Above all, strengthening with partially unbonded ductile Hybrid FRP Rods shows sufficient ductility similar to that of properly designed RC structures.

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate FRP rod for aging, which exposed to salt water and pure at elevated temperature. Dielectric constant and tan .delta. on time and frequency domain were tested to observe how rapidly the FRP rod aged. Dielectric constants of FRP rods with treating time were slightly increased. That of FRP rods with frequency, However, showed strongly the effects of large relaxation time estimated from interfacial polarization a or ionic. It is obvious that absorbed water affects to dielectric and electric properties of FRP with increasing the treating time.

최근 철근 콘크리트 구조물에서 철근의 부식문제를 근본적으로 해결하기 위한 대안으로 섬유강화폴리머(Fiber Reinforced Polymers, FRP)가 주목받고 있다. FRP는 철근에 비해 높은 비강도를 가지며, 무게가 가볍다. 특히 내부식성이 뛰어나 염해와 같은 열악한 환경에 특히 유용하다. 그러나 재료단가가 철근에 비해 높고, 장기거동에 대해 구축되어 있는 정보가 적으며 항복 거동을 보이는 철근과는 달리 취성파괴를 일으키기 때문에 FRP를 토목재료로 사용하려는 노력은 더디게 진행되고 있다. FRP 제작에 사용되는 섬유 중 유리섬유가 가장 경제적이지만 강성이 철근에 비해 대략 1/4 정도 밖에 되지 않아 휨부재에 사용될 경우 과도한 처짐 문제가 발생한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 유리섬유로 제작된 FRP(Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer, GFRP) 로드(Rod)의 인장특성을 개선하고자 탄소와 유리섬유로 제작된 하이브리드 로드의 인장특성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 로드 제작에 사용되는 수지 종류와 배치 방법에 대해 변수를 설정하여 총 40개의 시편을 제작하여 인장실험을 실시하였다. 하이브리드 로드의 인장특성은 섬유가 혼합되지 않은 순수한 유리섬유와 탄소섬유로만 제작된 로드의 인장특성과 비교하였다. 실험 결과에 따르면 로드의 핵은 탄소섬유로, 외피는 유리섬유로 제작된 하이브리드 로드의 인장특성이 가장 우수하였다.

This report is on the Reinforcing System(MFRI) for Concrete Structure using FRP ROD & High-Performance Mortar. The main characteristic of this system is as follow. First, the fiber rods in this system have seven times greater tensile strength than general reinforcing steel bars(re-bar) and the weight is a fifth lighter. Camels coated on the fiber rods' surfaces to improve adhesive strength and pull-out strength. Second, high strength shotcrete mortar is has very good workability and low rebound rate. After installing the Fiber Rods, Shotcrete mortar Is applied or sprayed to finish reinforcement. Finally, MFRI system has excellent fire-resisting performance and sogood tolerance against external environment by inserting fiber rods and reinforcing materials into mortar which has high compressive strength. It is applied to bridge slab, utility box and tunnel of civil engineering works, and beam and slab of building structures.

The fiber contributes the high strength and modulus to the composite. The fiber orientation in FRP has a great effect on the strength of FRP because the strength of FRP mainly depends on the strength of fiber. In this study, FRP was made unidirectionally by pultrusion method and outer part of FRP was made by filament winding method to give fiber orientation to the FRP. The bending strength and bending stresses of FRP rods were simulated according to the winding orientation of glass fiber. The bending strength of FRP was also evaluated. The results of simulation and evaluation Were compared each other to investigate main stresses which affect the fracture of FRP. The main stresses which had a great effect on the strength of FRP were shear stresses.

FRP has been used much for core materials of insulator. FRP consists of fiber and plastics(resin and binder). The fiber contributes strength to FRP. The fiber orientation in FRP has a great effect on the strength of FRP because the strength of FRP mainly depends on the strength of fiber. The direction of applied stress of FRP is different from the kinds of insulators. In this study, inner part of FRP rod was made unidirectionally by pultrusion method and outer part of FRP rod was made by filament winding method. Compressive strength and stress of FRP rods were simulated according to the winding orientation of glass fiber. Simulated value and real evaluated compressive strength were compared each other.
