This book investigates the shear strength of concrete beams reinforced with Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) bars, specifically Glass-FRP (GFRP), Carbon-FRP (CFRP), Aramid-FRP (AFRP), and Basalt-FRP (BFRP). Recognized for their high strength-to-weight ratios and exceptional corrosion resistance, FRP materials serve as sustainable alternatives to traditional steel reinforcement, particularly in aggressive environmental conditions. The book compares steel-reinforced concrete (RC) beams, with and without shear reinforcement, to FRP-reinforced beams. It reviews international standards, such as ACI 440.11-22 and CSA S806-12, and reviews experimental and theoretical analyses to assess the influence of material properties, reinforcement configurations, and failure mechanisms on shear behavior. The findings demonstrate that FRP-reinforced beams exhibit adequate shear resistance, highlighting their potential for enhancing structural resilience and longevity. The book concludes with recommendations for further research, including long-term durability assessments, design code refinements, and optimized reinforcement strategies for various structural applications .
