In the first figure you can see how this model is loaded in the second figure the deformation is shown.The loading is just a boundary condition of 10mm and connection between FRP and concrete is tie. With the way this model loaded it does not make any sense for it to deform in this why does anyone know how I make sure that FRP sheets slide instead of bending in this way.

you could restrain also the boundary condition at the tips of the FRP so that all the DOF BC is zero except the z direction.
Also make sure that the BC in Z direction is negative 10 mm.

I tried to restrain it as you said but it still bend at the middle
