Behavior of Concentrically Loaded Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Reinforced Concrete Columns with Varying Reinforcement Types and Ratios

Research Abstract
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) materials have proven their effectiveness as an alternative reinforcement for concrete structures in severe environmental conditions. Many studies have investigated the flexural and shear behaviors of FRP-reinforced concrete beams and slabs. Limited research, however, has gone into investigating the behavior of internally reinforced FRP concrete columns. This paper reports the experimental investigation of the compressive performance of concrete columns reinforced
