Summary

The aim of this paper is to develop a computational finite element (FE) model that can accurately predict the response of concrete beams reinforced with a hybrid combination of steel and aramid fiber reinforced polymer (AFRP) bars. The model developed takes into consideration cracking of the concrete in tension, yielding of the flexural steel reinforcement and bond-slip behavior between the reinforcing bars and adjacent concrete surfaces. The model developed is validated by comparing the predicted load-midspan deflection results with that of experimental data on two reinforced concrete specimens tested by other investigators. A comparison between the experimental and numerical results showed that the FE model developed can accurately capture the behavior and predicts the load carrying capacity of concrete beams reinforced with a hybrid combination of steel and AFRP bars.
