Bracing of large GFRP frames with very slender GFRP panels [PDF]
IABSE Reports, 2017 <p>Glass fibre reinforced polymers (GFRP) were developed in the first half of the 20th century. They have high strength (especially for tensile stresses), low density, high resistance in corrosive environments, and free formability. Despite these advantages, GFRP materials are not widely used in construction yet.

Hybrid Steel/NSM/GFRP System Versus GFRP Wrapping for Upgrading RC Wall-like Columns
Polymers, 2023 Reinforced concrete (RC) wall-like columns are commonly employed in structures in Saudi Arabia. These columns are preferred by architects owing to their minimum projection in the usable space. However, they often need strengthening due to several reasons, such as the addition of more stories and increasing the live load as a result of changing the ...

Static Mechanical Properties of GFRP Laminates with Waste GFRP Interleaf
Procedia Engineering, 2011 AbstractA recycle method of GFRP is investigated in this study. Waste GFRP was divided into short glass fibers and resin fragments by milling. However the tensile strength of composites with the chips of waste GFRP is low, the composites are expected that fiber bridging and higher compressive strength than resin.
