Abstract
The employment of FRP rods in structures has evolved due to their merits such as high strength, durability, low electric conductivity and light weight. Therefore, research work has been devoted to investigating their behaviour under loading cases commonly encountered in practice. This has led to long reports full of questions about the rods behaviour. Hence, it seems reasonable to investigate the behaviour of rods main component (fibers). This, hopefully, leads to answers for the queue of questions we have
