FRP Rebar - Composite Construction Equipment

FRP REBAR - COMPOSITE CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT Conventional concrete structures are reinforced with standard or pre-stressed steel. The steel is initially protected against corrosion by the alkalinity of the concrete. However, in aggressive environments such as marine structures, bridges and garages exposed to de-icing salts, combinations of humidity, temperature and chloride reduce the alkalinity of concrete. These conditions lead to corrosion of the reinforcing steel and deterioration of the concrete. Epoxy coated steel or stainless steel has been used instead of standard steel to solve corrosion problems. However, in recent years, composite materials made of fibers embedded in polymeric resins, known as FRP, have become a frequently preferred alternative for reinforcing steel for concrete structures. It's time to start thinking about this alternative material for your next project.
