FIBRE-REINFORCED POLYMER REINFORCEMENT FOR CONCRETE STRUCTURES
(In 2 Volumes)
Proceedings of the Sixth International Symposium on FRP Reinforcement for Concrete Structures (FRPRCS-6)

Singapore 8 - 10 July 2003

edited by Kiang Hwee Tan (National University of Singapore)

Fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement has been used in construction as either internal or external reinforcement for concrete structures in the past decade. This book provides the latest research findings related to the development, design and application of FRP reinforcement in new construction and rehabilitation works. The topics include FRP properties and bond behaviour, externally bonded reinforcement for flexure, shear and confinement, FRP structural shapes, durability, member behaviour under sustained loads, fatigue loads and blast loads, prestressed FRP tendons, structural strengthening applications, case studies, and codes and standards.
