“…In order to verify the proposed equation, Equation (3) was compared with the test results of this study and available test results in the literature [3,[6][7][8][9][10][11] as listed in Table 2. All 42 beams were reinforced with different reinforcement ratios of GFRP and CFRP bars with shear span ratios within 2.3 to 5.0.…”

Abstract. This study presents a shear strength prediction model for concrete beams reinforced with GFRP bars. An empirical equation is developed using multiple regression analysis from the experimental results of 16 RC beams with GFRP bars. The proposed equation involved the parameters that affected the shear strength of beams such as compressive concrete strength, shear span ratio, longitudinal reinforcement ratio and modulus elasticity of the reinforcement. The accuracy of the proposed equation was verified by predicting the available experimental data from the literature. Furthermore, the predictions of shear capacities were compared with the current shear design code of ACI 440.1R-06. As a result, the ACI 440 provides very conservative prediction, while a better prediction is obtained from the shear strength prediction model in the present study.
