Glass-fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars have been more often used in reinforced concrete (RC) structures mainly due to superior corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. However, the low modulus of elasticity leads to serviceability issues such as wider crack openings and larger deflections when compared to conventional RC. To improve the performance and allow for a more effective use of GFRP reinforcement, the addition of randomly disperse short polypropylene fibers (PP) to the concrete matrix is proposed. In the present study, an experimental program intending to investigate the flexural and tensile behavior of concrete members reinforced with GFRP bars and 10 kg/m3 of PP is carried out. Mechanical characterization and pull-out tests were carried out respectively to characterize the materials and interface between GFRP bar and concrete. Crack formation and growth, and tension stiffening effect in the proposed construction material were investigated by tension tests in reinforced concrete prisms. Four points bending tests were performed to evaluate the mid-span deflection, crack opening and moment-curvature relationship of the specimen. Digital image correlation was used to gather information about relevant data. It was proposed an analytical model to compare the results obtained in bending tests. A considerable reduction in crack openings, a better multiple cracks behavior and a slightly stiffer behavior was obtained due to fiber addition.
