Abstract
The conventional approach to improve the corrosion resistance of steel rebar is to apply a coating, like epoxy, that provides a physical barrier to the corroding environment. The overall goal of this study is to optimize this new type of fiber reinforced plastic material coated rebars for the construction of RC structures in various applications and thereby reducing construction and maintenance costs and improving structural performance.
