It is recognized that serviceability plays a significant role in the design of GFRP-reinforced concrete beams. Therefore, accurate modeling of flexural stiffness is critical and the effect of influencing parameters must be considered. This study accounts for variations in concrete strength fcВў, reinforcement density r , and shear span-depth ratio (av / d). Experimental results from 48 simply supported concrete beams reinforced with GFRP are compared with ACI Committee 440В’s published deflection model. The ACI 440.1R model is found to overestimate the effective moment of inertia, and an appropriate modification is presented.
