Durability Prediction of GFRP Rebar Based on Elastic Modulus Degradation

A conventional method to study the durability of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) rebars is to carry out tensile tests on the corroded GFRP bars. The degree of corrosion of the GFRP bars could be quantified based on the measured ultimate tensile strength and the calculated strength reduction. H...
