FRP SYSTEM
Fiber Reinforced Polymers consist of long and continuous fibers impregnated with an organic polymer matrix
(epoxy resin). The fibers (carbon, glass, basalt) have different mechanical properties: tensile strength, elastic
modulus, elongation. FRP are indicated for bending, shear, compression and combined axial-flexural
strengthening of elements (beam, pillar, slab and joint) in reinforced concrete, masonry, steel and wooden
structures.
