| Abstract | Widespread deterioration of infrastructure resulting from corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete has led recently to the use of fibre reinforced polymers (FRPs) in a number of infrastructure applications. A significant research effort over the past fifteen years has shown that FRP materials can be effectively used to reinforce and/or strengthen deteriorated or under strength reinforced concrete structures. However, the performance of FRP materials in fire remains a serious concern, which needs to be addressed before these materials can be used with confidence in applications where fire endurance is a design criterion (i.e. buildings, parking garages, etc.). This report presents a review of the literature with respect to the fire and high temperature behaviour of FRP composites as is relevant to the design and construction of FRP-strengthened or reinforced concrete structures. |
