The main factors determining the choice of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) materials are the intended use of the designed structure and the environmental conditions in which it will be located. Currently, the FRP-based materials have a variety of applications in the construction industry, from the secondary structural elements of buildings, to a complicated designs, where the only FRPs were used. The advances in FRP technology have spurred interest in introducing innovative hybrid fiber-reinforced polymer (HFRP), which potentially can be used as reinforcing/enhancing material. This paper describes the investigation on newly-developed hybrid fiber-reinforced polymer HFRP bars, which were created by modification of basalt fiber-reinforced polymer BFRP bars in terms of physical substituting of the certain amount of basalt fibers by the part of carbon fibers. Modification is aimed at achieving of better properties in obtained material and simultaneously ensuring cost-effectiveness concept. The investigation includes the preparation and numerical considerations on HFRP bars as well as first attempts of experimental structural testing of innovative HFRP bars.
