Although FRP strengthening is not used in any situation, but most struatural strengthening project can be used.

1. Adaptability to any geometry


Because FRP fabric is thin and flexible, it can be “U" wrapped around beams.


Also FRP fabric can be applied to curved surfaces, such as the exterior of grain silos. It can be wrapped around columns.


FRP can be applied in tight spaces, such as at a “V” intersection of a beam and a set of stairs. It can be cut into strips, for applications such as trim reinforcement around new openings.


2. High strength-to-weight ratio


High tensile strength, 7-10 times that of steel of the same section.


Light weight, the density is only 1/4 of ordinary steel


3. Less disruption to commercial operations


No need for large machinery to the construction site


Will not affect the use of normal business


4. Corrosion resistance


Carbon fiber material itself has high corrosion resistance to acids, alkalis and salts.


5. No maintenance required 


No maintenance costs are required in the later period


6. Short construction period


Easy and fast construction, saving time and effort
