How do fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) enhance the performance of concrete structures?
How do fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) enhance the performance of concrete structures?
FRPs are composite materials made from fibers (e.g., carbon, glass) embedded in a polymer matrix. When used to reinforce concrete structures, they improve flexural strength, durability, corrosion resistance, and seismic performance, extending the lifespan of the infrastructure.
