Abstract
Continuous fiber reinforcing materials (CFRM), which are made of continuous fibers such as aramid, carbon, etc., bound with resin, are expected to be substituted for steel bars in reinforced and prestressed concrete structures. CFRM are free from corrosion but brittle and the Young’s modulus is low as compared with steel bars. In this paper, the features of CFRM are outlined, and then the ductile and/or brittle failure behavior are investigated using 3-element “parallel” and “series” systems. The favorable failure modes are discussed with relation to the members with CFRM.
