- Concrete Flexural Members Reinforced With Fiber Reinforced Polymer: Design for Cracking and Deformability
- Fiber reinforced polymer FRP bars have lower modulus of elasticity than steel bars. For this reason when FRP bars are used as flexural nonprestressed reinforcement in concrete sections, the stress in the FRP is limited to a relatively small fraction of its tensile strength. This limit, necessary to control width...
