Abstract
It is well known that FRP can improve the performance of concrete. However, the effectiveness of FRP to enhance the performance of lightweight concrete is less explored. This study aims to investigate the effect of FRP thickness on the axial compressive behavior of GFRP-confined lightweight concrete cylinders. Nine lightweight concrete specimens wrapped with 0, 1, 2, and 3 sheets of GFRP were manufactured and tested until failure. The test confirms that the thicker specimens experienced higher axial stress and strain compared to the thinner ones.
