The research work reported in this paper involves investigation of the tensile behavior of fiber- reinforced polymer (FRP) ground anchors. Variables of the tests on the anchor models were anchor fixed length, tendon type, and tendon constituent. Sixteen monorod and four multirod grouted aramid FRP (AFRP) (Arapree and Technora) and carbon FRP (CFRP) (CFCC and Leadline) anchors were tested according to standard methods of tensile tests and sustained load tests under different load levels.
