Strut Efficiency-Based Design for Concrete Deep Beams Reinforced with FRP Bars

Thursday, July 14, 2016 - 08:51 in Physics & Chemistry

Concrete deep beams are commonly used when designing transfer girders or bridge bents. These elements are exposed to aggressive environments in northern climates, which causes the steel bars to corrode. Researchers examined the use of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) instead of steel as internal reinforcement in deep beams
