Some preliminary results on analysis of concrete flexural members with hybrid reinforcements
It is generally accepted that conventional steel reinforced concrete (RC) flexural members usually fails in a ductile mode with low load-carrying capacity. In contrast, recent introduction of fibre-reinforced-polymer (FRP) rods into RC beams gives rise to a higher ultimate load but it lacks ductili...
