APPLICATIONS OF ADVANCED COMPOSITE MATERIALS IN
CONSTRUCTION
www.tuf-bar.com
INTRODUCTION
Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composite materials are being used predominately by military and aerospace industries. However, the growing use of advance composite materials in civil construction warrant a special mention.
Polymer composites are multi-phase materials produced by combining reinforcing fibers and matrix with fillers and additives.
WHY COMPOSITE MATERIALS FOR CIVIL CONSTRUCTION?
DISTINCTIVE PROPERTIES OF FRP COMPOSITES
Adaptability to different environmental conditions
High strength-to-weight ratio
Corrosion-resistant and long service life
High strength and stiffness
Cost-effective
GFRP, A VARIENT OF FRP COMPOSITES
Glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP)is one of the most prominent variations of construction composite Materials.
