Description

This is a recorded webinar from April 25.

This webinar is jointly sponsored by NEx: An ACI Center of Excellence for Nonmetallic Building Materials and the American Concrete Institute (ACI). Glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) reinforced concrete has many practical advantages, however the engineering and use of GFRP bars requires specific considerations that are different than the ways that steel reinforced concrete is designed and constructed. This presentation will focus on the major differences between GFRP and steel reinforcement. It will provide useful guidance for any engineer or contractor interested in using GFRP bars. New manuals that focus on assisting the engineer in the design process of GFRP reinforced concrete and that focus on helping contractors in the installation of GFRP bars will be highlighted. The content of these key resources will be covered in order to help engineers and contractors acclimate to the use of GFRP bars.
