The bond relationships between glass fibre reinforced plastic bars wit
h polyester matrix and concrete is investigated in order to obtain inf
ormation concerning the possible use of these bars for the reinforceme
nt of concrete constructions, where the use of ordinary steel bars cou
ld have certain disadvantages due to the possibility of corrosion. The
results obtained are used ro develop a model of the stress-slip relat
ionship and to estimate she anchorage lengths needed to embed these ba
rs in concrete casts.
