FRP C-Wall: Commercial Wall Designer with GFRP bars

FRP C-Wall: Commercial Wall Designer with GFRP bars

This comprehensive software designs commercial basement walls using Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) as a high-performance alternative to traditional steel reinforcement. GFRP bars deliver an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, are lightweight, offer complete corrosion resistance, and will not interfere with electromagnetic fields. While priced comparably to steel, GFRP provides significantly lower long-term maintenance costs and easier on-site handling.
 
To ensure a robust structural design, the software considers all involved design parameters—including lateral earth pressure, wall geometry, concrete strength, backfill height, and GFRP characteristics. Compliance with ACI 440.11-22 standards guarantees a safe, reliable final product with an expected service life of 75 to 100 years, vastly outperforming steel alternatives. Additionally, built-in support for Basalt FRP (BFRP) materials allows users to easily compare options and select the ideal solution for their project.

Complete Geometrical and material definition

The software features an intuitive input structure divided into material and geometrical characteristics. Within these categories, users can comprehensively define the unique properties of both concrete and FRP reinforcements.

Full Design for Vertical and horizontal bars

Our platform performs complete flexural designs for vertical bars alongside thorough detailing for horizontal reinforcement. The final output provides full validation for both strength and serviceability performance requirements. For project documentation, a comprehensive calculation package can be generated easily via the “Report” function.

FRP Manufacturer or User specified characterstics

The software provides maximum flexibility, allowing users to choose from an integrated list of manufacturer products or input custom values using the “User Specified” mode.

Results

The software displays the performance metrics of your selected bar in the first row of results, followed by a thorough comparison against standard ASTM bar parameters. Each output delivers critical engineering data, including bar diameter, strength and cracking conditions, FRP strain, failure modes, and concrete cover condition. It also details the exact spacing and development lengths required for both vertical and horizontal reinforcement. Users can easily export these comprehensive calculations into a polished, professional document using the “Report” button.
