Abstract

We now understand that, in the general construction of structures, the selection of reinforcing materials plays a critical role in guaranteeing structural durability and integrity. The comparative study of fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) bars and steel, two widely utilized materials, is explored in this abstract with an emphasis on the differences in their load-deflection properties and ductility behaviours. Because of its exceptional ductility, steel is commonly used in constructions that are situated in seismically active areas. On the other hand, CFRP bars have certain benefits, such resistance to corrosion and less weight, even if they are less ductile. The trade-offs between various materials are revealed by the study of load-deflection qualities, highlighting the significance of choosing the best choice in light of particular building constraints and needs.
