Keywords: codes and standards; concrete design; FRP reinforcement Synopsis:This paper presents design examples that illustrate the interaction of design parameters, to examine some of the more critical issues and challenges that arise when designing FRP-RC to satisfy ultimate strength and serviceability criteria using the ACI 440.1R-03 Guide. A spreadsheet program was written for flexural and serviceability analysis and design of concrete sections reinforced with a single layer of glass or carbon FRP bars. Analysis and design examples were developed and design aids were constructed to assist in economically and efficiently sizing FRP-reinforced concrete members. Potential difficulties that arise from the inherent nature of FRP-reinforced concrete failure modes have been identified and explored. by W.K. Feeser and V.L.
