Reinforcing of discontinuity regions in concrete deep beams with GFRP composite bars

The behavior of concrete deep beams internally-reinforced with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars around regions of discontinuity is investigated. Twelve deep beam specimens were tested. One specimen was solid whereas the remaining eleven specimens included an opening in the shear span. Test...
