This session is one of 14 sessions that form the 16th Fiber Reinforced Polymer Reinforced Concrete Structures (FRPRCS-16) Symposium. It is co-sponsored by ACI Committee 440 and the International Institute for FRP in Construction (IIFC) for the purpose of advancing the understanding and application of FRP composites in civil infrastructure to serve the engineering profession and society. FRPRCS was first held in conjunction with the ACI 1993 Spring convention in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Since 1993, FRPRCS has evolved into a prestigious and reputable international conference that has been held 15 times including 5 times in conjunction with ACI: British Columbia, Canada (1993); Baltimore (1999); Kansas City (2005); Tampa (2011); and Anaheim (2017).This session will focus on the performance of FRP reinforced or strengthened concrete structures under seismic loadings.

The contents of this course include 4 recorded presentations from the ACI 2024 Spring Convention:
1. Modeling Cyclic Response of CFRP Strengthened Fiber Anchored RC Frame Members to Failure, Salman Alshamrani, Kansas State University
2. A Comparative Analysis of GFRP- and Steel-RC Columns under Combined Shear, Flexure, and Torsion Loads, Yasser Selmy, University of Manitoba
3. Seismic Strengthening of RC Beam-Column Joint with FRP Systems Applicable from the Exterior of the Building, Ciro Del Vecchio, University of Napoli4. Development of ASCE
41 m-Factors for FRP Strengthened Columns, Pedro Silva, The George Washington University

1. Discuss the nonlinear analysis for RC frames strengthened with CFRPs.
2. Investigate the feasibility of using GFRP reinforcement in columns subjected to combined quasi-static seismic loading conditions.
3. Report on seismic strengthening of RC beam-column joints with FRP systems applicable from the exterior of the building.
4. Describe the seismic performance of carbon FRP-reinforced concrete columns.
