As a composite material, glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) has several uses. Incorporating CFRP composite material has enhanced the structural behaviour of reinforced concrete beams (RCB) as external reinforcement. It is also important to compile a summary of how different RCB characteristics ar...
