GFRP Reinforced Concrete Slabs in Fire: Finite Element Modelling

Papers abstract: In a fire incident, service loads are present when the structure is engulfed by flames. This sequence—structural loading followed by heat exposure—is used in the finite element (FE) modeling of GFRP-reinforced concrete (RC) slabs. The FE model is validated against two sets of full-scale fire tests on GFRP RC slabs and one set […]
