Abstract:Steel reinforcement corrosion is the chief influencing factor of durability of concrete stFactures.Fiber reinforced polymer(FRP)bars, a new compound material with high tensile strength, light weight, strong resistance to corrosion and fatigue, is a new solution to the corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete if replaced by FRP bars.This paper discusses the basic behaviors and features of the FRP bars and describes the latest research and application progress of the FRP bars reinforced con—crete.
