Abstract

Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites, Ahead of Print.
Hybrid reinforcement of steel and fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars can provide a balanced performance between strength, ductility, and durability for the concrete structures. Thus, this study evaluates the shear performance of hybrid Basalt-FRP/steel-...
