    The American Concrete Institute's Student Fiber-Reinforced Polymers Composites (FRP) Competition was to see which team's concrete beam fared best in cost/load ratio and predicted strength of the fiber-polymer bars that reinforced the beam. Credits were awarded for a sustainable design.

    The American Concrete Institute's Student Fiber-Reinforced Polymers Composites (FRP) Competition was to see which team's concrete beam fared best in cost/load ratio and predicted strength of the fiber-polymer bars that reinforced the beam. Credits were awarded for a sustainable design.

    Design, construct, and test a concrete structure reinforced with FRP reinforcement to achieve the lowest cost-load ratio. Cost was defined as the calculated batch cost for concrete materials and chemical admixtures plus the cost of the FRP used to reinforce the structure; adjusted for forming costs for more complicated geometries and reduced by credits given for implementation of sustainable design concepts.

    Students we're also responsible for predicting the ultimate load.and the load that would result in a piston deflection of 3.5 mm (0.14 in.).
