DOI: 10.3390/ma14206116
Abstract: Non-metallic reinforcement such as fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) is now being increasingly used in construction. Despite numerous similarities, elements reinforced with non-metallic bars work differently from the ones reinforced with steel bars, including cracking and failure… read more here.
