Mechanical Behavior and Innovative Applications of Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Composite and Fiber-Reinforced Polymer in Infrastructures
Abstrak
Fiber-reinforced cementitious composite (FRCC) and fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) have been widely applied in infrastructures. Their mechanical behavior and innovative applications are examined in this article. Firstly, the mechanical behaviors of FRCC and the corresponding improving methods are elaborated. The bond behavior of the FRP–concrete interface, which has a significant effect on the strengthening effect of FRP, is reviewed. A proposed method to enhance the bond behavior is also introduced. In addition, the effectiveness of FRP is demonstrated in terms of improving the load-bearing capacity, stiffness, crack resistance, fatigue resistance, and other behaviors of existing structures. Furthermore, the feasibility of fibers or FRPs in new constructions is also validated. Finally, the future prospects of the research and applications of FRCC and FRP are discussed.
