Performance Improvement of a Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Bar for a Reinforced Sea Sand and Seawater Concrete Beam in the Serviceability Limit State

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) has supreme resistance to corrosion and can be designed with optic fibers. FRP can be an alternative to steel reinforcement for concrete structures, and can serve as a sensor for smart concrete structures. Due to poor cracking control and bond performance, the limit of...
