Mechanical Properties of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers for Non-Prestressed Concrete Structures (GFRP)
Keywords:
Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP), Mechanical Properties, ReinforcementAbstract
Currently, Thailand is increasingly adopting Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) as a replacement for steel reinforcement in reinforced concrete structures due to its comparable mechanical properties to steel, lower cost, and environmental friendliness. The objective of this research is to test the mechanical properties of GFRP and establish its reliability for use in non-prestressed concrete structures. The tests conducted include cross-sectional size determination, tensile strength along the length, bond strength, shear resistance, and alkali resistance in solutions with high pH values. The results showed that the GFRP samples met the standards of the Thai Industrial Standard (TIS 2973-2562) in all conducted tests.
