Description

ACI SP-360 PDF

This Special Publication contains a total of 52 peer-reviewed technical manuscripts from 20 different countries from around the world. Papers are organized in the following topics: (1) FRP Bond and Anchorage in Concrete Structures; (2) Strengthening of Concrete Structures using FRP Systems; (3) FRP Materials, Properties, Tests and Standards; (4) Emerging FRP Systems and Successful Project Applications; (5) FRP-Reinforced Concrete Structures; (6) Advances in FRP Applications in Masonry Structures; (7) Seismic Resistance of FRP-Reinforced/Strengthened Concrete Structures; (8) Behavior of Prestressed Concrete Structures; (9) FRP Use in column Applications; (10) Effect of Extreme Events on FRP-Reinforced/Strengthened Structures; (11) Durability of FRP Systems; and (12) Advanced Analysis of FRP Reinforced Concrete Structures.

The 16th International Symposium on Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Reinforcement for Concrete Structures (FRPRCS-16) was organized by ACI Committee 440 (Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Reinforcement) and held on March 23 and 24, 2024, at the ACI Spring 2024 Convention in New Orleans, LA. FRPRCS-16 gathers researchers, practitioners, owners, and manufacturers from the United States and abroad, involved in the use of FRPs as reinforcement for concrete and masonry structures, both for new construction and for strengthening and rehabilitation of existing structures.

FRPRCS is the longest running conference series on the application of FRP in civil construction, commencing in Vancouver, BC, in 1993. FRPRCS has been one of the two official conference series of the International Institute for FRP in Construction (IIFC) since 2018 (the other is the CICE series). These conference series rotate between Europe, Asia, and the Americas, with alternating years between CICE and FRPRCS. The ACI convention has previously cosponsored the FRPRCS symposium in Anaheim (2017), Tampa (2011), Kansas City (2005), and Baltimore (1999).

The breadth and depth of the knowledge presented in these papers is clear evidence of the maturity of the field of composite materials in civil infrastructure. The ACI Committee 440 is witness to this evolution, with its first published ACI CODE-440.11, “Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete with Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) Bars,” published in 2022. A second code document on fiber reinforced polymer for repair and rehabilitation of concrete is under development.

The publication of the sixteenth volume in the symposium series could not have occurred without the support and dedication of many individuals. The editors would like to recognize the authors who diligently submitted their original papers; the reviewers, many of them members of ACI Committee 440, who provided critical review and direction to improve these papers; ACI editorial staff who guided the publication process; and the support of the American Concrete Institute (ACI) and the International Institute for FRP in Construction (IIFC) during the many months of preparation for the Symposium.
