Experimental Study on Mechanical Properties of Interface between Basalt Fiber-Reinforced Polymer/Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composite Cement Plate and Concrete by Lifeng Zhang, Hui Liu, Wenqiang Li, Hangjun Liu, Xuehui An, Xiaoruan Song

“…The influence of the FRP cement plates, the concrete strength, and the ribs installed in the cement plate on the interfacial shear strength, the relative bond-slip, strain, and the failure modes of the composite samples is recorded and analyzed. The results show that (1) the shear strength and bond-slip performance of the interface are largely improved if the GFRP/BRRP cement plates are used; (2) shear strength of the interface increases with the concrete strength, while the deformation behaviors show no significant improvement; (3) an inclusion of the ribs to the interface enhances the shear strength and shear stiffness but decreases the maximum relative slip at failure; (4) most of the samples present the shear failures along the interface; however, the bending shear failure prior to the interface shear failure is also observed on the concrete block for low concrete strength samples and the samples with ribs; and (5) regression method is used to develop a constitutive model of the stress-slip at the interface to describe the relationship between the shear strength with the cement plates, the concrete strength, and ribs.…”
