Abstract EN
Since 1980, Egyptian government investment has been directed to the infrastructure projects.
Water supply and water drainage networks are among those projects which are very costly; therefore they are designed with a life span of about one hundred years.
There is a new trend toward the use of durable and maintenance free systems.
The ‘‘GFRP’’ pipes are one of the economic solutions if the project life span is taken into consideration.
A number of investors currently produce the ‘‘GFRP’’ pipes in the Egyptian market and although they follow the latest technologies in their production lines, they still suffer 2–5% deficiency of their produced pipes which consequently regarded as rejected pipes.
This percentage has a negative impact on the environmental and economical issues.
This research is a trial to investigate the behavior of circular columns confined by GFRP stirrups and exposed to severe conditions.
A number of waste pipes were randomly selected and sliced to be used as circular column transverse reinforcement.
An experimental program consisting of ten short circular columns was designed to study the effect of corrosion, high degrees of temperature, and sulfate attack on the structural behavior of the axially loaded short circular columns.
The experimental results showed that columns laterally reinforced by GFRP slices have a comparable behavior to conventionally reinforced concrete columns especially for those columns exposed to corrosion and sulfate attack
