Abstract:
The application of the FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymer) rebar is presented in this paper. The various kinds of fibers, depending on the types of the FRP rebar and types of matrix of FRP are listed. The main tasks of matrix and fibers are specified. The two methods of FRP bars production are explained. The selected physical and mechanical properties of the various types of the FRP rebar are shown and compared. The long-term properties of the FRP rebar, as relaxation and creeping processes, are also introduced. The FRP properties were compared to conventional steel reinforcement properties. Moreover, the typical disadvantages of traditional reinforced concrete, as the susceptibility to corrosion were presented. It is shown that the FRP reinforcement is quite opposite, since it has almost total resistance to corrosion. The corrosion factors, to which the FRP is resistant, are presented and explained.
