Abstract

The bond relationships between glass fibre reinforced plastic bars with polyester matrix and concrete is investigated in order to obtain information concerning the possible use of these bars for the reinforcement of concrete constructions, where the use of ordinary steel bars could have certain disadvantages due to the possibility of corrosion. The results obtained are used to develop a model of the stress-slip relationship and to estimate the anchorage lengths needed to embed these bars in concrete casts.
