Abstract:

The degradation of conventional steel reinforcement in concrete, particularly in marine environments, has driven a shift toward using glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) rebars due to their superior corrosion resistance. However, GFRP rebars are prone to deterioration in mechanical properties when exposed to prolonged hygrothermal conditions. Understanding the impact of environmental and mechanical factors on the Tensile Strength Retention (TSR) of GFRP rebars, both bare and embedded in concrete, is crucial for evaluating their durability in concrete structures. This study employs an experimental approach combined with machine learning techniques, specifically the XGBoost model, to predict TSR under various conditions. The experimental procedure involved preloading the bars, embedding some in concrete while leaving others bare, followed by conditioning at room and elevated temperatures (60 degrees C) for up to 183 days. Subsequently, a total of 224 data points were obtained through accelerated aging tests and used to buit the model. The latter achieved high accuracy, with R2 values of 0.99 and 0.87 for the training and testing datasets, respectively. Furthermore, SHAP analysis identified immersion time, temperature, and preloading as key factors influencing GFRP degradation. Notably, the 10 mm rebars embedded in concrete exhibited greater degradation compared to those directly immersed in seawater with TSR of 80.40 % and 88.3 % respectively. In contrast, the gap between the TSR of embedded and bare bars reduced considerably for 25 mm rebars with values of 87.8 % for the former and 89.8 % for the latter. This study offers predictive tools for forecasting the TSR of aged GFRP rebars. It provides valuable insights for optimizing GFRP bar performance under adverse conditions, emphasizing the importance of environmental and mechanical factors in their practical application.
