Web Crippling of Pultruded GFRP Profiles: A Review of Experimental, Numerical, and Theoretical Analyses.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite profiles produced by pultrusion method are widely used as an alternative to traditional building materials due to their lightness and corrosion resistance. However, these materials are susceptible to crushing type fractures known as "web crippling" especially under local loading due to their anisotropic structure and limited mechanical strength. Understanding web-crippling behavior is crucial for the safe and efficient structural application of pultruded GFRP profiles. This study report narrated the review of experimental, numerical, and analytical investigations of web-crippling behavior of pultruded GFRP profiles. Highlights of the major findings include profile geometry and detailing of the flange-web joint, loading types (end-two-flange (ETF), interior-two-flange (ITF), end bearing with ground (EG), interior bearing with ground (IG)), bearing plate dimensions, presence of web openings, and elevated temperatures. It also considers the limitations of current standards, along with new modeling techniques that incorporate finite element analysis as well as artificial intelligence. Damage types such as web-flange joint fractures, crushing, and buckling were comparatively analyzed; design approaches based on finite element modeling and artificial intelligence-supported prediction models were also included. These insights provide guidance for optimizing profile design and improving predictive models for structural engineering applications. Gaps in current design standards and modeling approaches are highlighted to guide future research.
