This study investigates the influence of various transverse reinforcement configurations on the torsional performance of glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) reinforced concrete beams. A comprehensive experimental investigation includes five specimens, each characterized by unique transverse reinforcement designs in terms of stirrup spacing and inclination angles. The implementation of transverse torsional reinforcements within the beams exhibited a remarkable post-cracking hardening response, contributing to enhanced strength recovery. The experimental findings are subsequently compared with a reliable three-dimensional finite element model developed using the ABAQUS software. Finally, a parametric study is conducted to examine the influence of concrete and GFRP bar strength, along with longitudinal and transverse reinforcement ratios, on the torsional behavior of GFRP reinforced concrete beams. The results emphasize the significant impact of concrete tensile strength and transverse reinforcement on the cracking torque, while the parameters related to longitudinal reinforcement have only marginal effects.
