Glass-Fiber Reinforcing Rod: Characterization and Application to Concrete Structures and Grouted Anchors

by O. Chaallal, Univ of Sherbrooke, Sherbrooke, Canada,

Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Materials: Performance and Prevention of Deficiencies and Failures

Abstract:

This paper presents the physical and mechanical characteristics of a new glass-fiber reinforcing rod which was developed to be used as a rebar for concrete structures or a tendon for grouted anchors. On the basis of these properties, the paper gives also some design examples of concrete elements reinforced with these glass-fiber rods and grouted anchors.
