CI4712ASCCstatement

Date: 

December 1, 2025

Publication:

Concrete International

Volume:

47

Issue:

12

Abstract:

Mass concrete placements require attention to design requirements and construction considerations to manage internal concrete temperature rise and thermal stresses that can lead to cracking. ASCC concrete contractors recognize that when mass concrete is specified, project success relies on clear definition of mass concrete elements and temperature limits, including early coordination and project-specific thermal control plan requirements and its optimization.

Abstract:

This is the second in the series of Q&A articles attempting to clarify some common questions and misconceptions about glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) reinforcing bars. Discussed topics include traceability, hybrid reinforcement, sustainability, elevated temperature and fire, seismic provisions, limitations, and splices and headed bars.

Abstract:

Glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) reinforcement is currently only allowed to be used in concrete structures in Seismic Design Category (SDC) A. An approach explored in this article is the use of GFRP reinforcement for structural elements that are not intended to be part of the inelastic (yielding) mechanism of the seismic force-resisting systems.
