Mechanical and durability properties of GFRP bars exposed to aggressive solution environments

Two categories of GFRP specimens, in nominal diameters of 11.2 mm and 15.6 mm respectively, made of E-glass fibers and a vinylester resin were immersed in alkaline solution, saline solution and tap water solution at room temperature. The mechanical and durability properties of tested GFRP bar specim...
