N1 - Funding Information:
Development of materials specifications in North America has been funded by the Federal Highway Administration in the United States and by the ISIS Research Network and Public Works Canada in Canada. These efforts led to the development of model specifications for FRP materials (Bank et al. 2003) and to the first material specifications for internal concrete reinforcements (ACI 2008; CSA 2015) and for FRP repair materials (ACI 2013). For reinforced concrete structures in the United States, the American Concrete Institute (ACI) typically has jurisdiction over design codes and construction specifications and ASTM has jurisdiction over test

N2 - A major barrier to the acceptance of FRP composite materials in civil engineering is the lack of standard materials. Non-standard and proprietary materials must be qualified for short- and long-term performance, using test methods and meeting requirements that may also lack standardization. In North America, ASTM D30.10 - Composites for Civil Structures, develops test methods and material standards for FRP materials. This paper reports on the recently approved ASTM Standard for Solid Round Glass FRP Bars for Concrete Reinforcement. The standard covers requirements on constituent materials, bar geometry and testing for physical, mechanical and durability properties. The paper outlines the material specification, introduces the dependent test methods that support the specification, and discusses possible future standardization efforts for FRP bars in ASTM D30.
