Structural performance and moment redistribution of basalt FRC continuous beams reinforced with basalt FRP bars by Abushanab, Abdelrahman

“…This study investigated the structural performance and moment redistribution of basalt fiber reinforced concrete (BFRC) continuous beams reinforced with basalt fiber reinforced polymers (BFRP) bars. A total of 10 reinforced concrete (RC) continuous beams over two equal spans of 1800 mm were tested under five-point loading until failure. …”
