Which consequence results when excessive vibration causes cumulative micro-cracking in a concrete beam reinforced with fiberglass rebar undergoing cyclic loading?

💡 Explanation

Progressive loss of bond strength occurs because the **debonding mechanism** at the rebar-concrete interface is accelerated; therefore, effective stress transfer decreases, rather than enhanced shear capacity, due to micro-crack intensification.
