Overview
This book explores the use of composite rebars—especially Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRPs)—as a modern structural solution in concrete construction, offering a comprehensive analysis of their mechanical behavior, durability, and performance. It presents the latest research on material properties, concrete compatibility, and real-world applications in structures such as tunnels, tanks, and bridges. Emphasizing the benefits of FRPs, including corrosion resistance, high tensile strength, and lightweight design, the book provides valuable insights into the future of reinforced concrete engineering.
