  • Abstract:
  • This project focuses on the replacement of steel rebars in concrete beam with Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer rod in reinforced concrete beam. And analyzing its behaviour under 2-point load using a FEM software called ANSYS. The load and deflection are observed. GFRP is a type of composite material. The use of composite materials has been studied and developed nowadays. There are different types of composite materials, manufactured to meet the necessity and the requirement of the structures. The main property is high strength to weight ratio, durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term integrity. The composite materials are also used in structures exposed to cyclic loads. The required data are taken from ACI-1r-06 and ACI-440.1R-15 codes.
