Specify the diameter, shape and dimensions of the element, number of pieces and date.

COMPARED WITH STEEL

A shaped element made from GFRP reinforcement.

2,5×

Higher tensile strength

For the straight section of the bar, compared with a steel bar of the same diameter.

4×

Lower weight

Compared with a steel bar of the same diameter.

Corrosion resistance

Composite reinforcement does not rust.

Shaped elements

The bend is part of the supplied element as manufactured.

Strength in the bent section is assessed separately. The strength of the bent section is >400 MPa; this is not the strength value of a straight bar.

STANDARDS AND TECHNICAL RESOURCES

Parameters and approval status.

01 / MATERIAL

ASTM D7957 · CSA S807

Compliance with ASTM D7957 and CSA S807 material standards.

02 / CE

Approval in progress

CE marking approval is in progress.

03 / DESIGN

Project-specific solution

Design resources: ACI 440.11-22, AASHTO FRP Design Specifications 2018, AFGC 2023 and CNR-DT 203/R1/2025. Suitability of a bent element must be assessed for the specific detail.

APPLICATIONS

Concrete structural details.

Foundations and walls

Shaped elements for foundation and concrete wall details.

Precast structures

Reinforcement details manufactured to the element drawing.

Transport and water structures

Use in structures where the design specifies shaped GFRP reinforcement.

The structural design determines the shape and sizing.
