Characterization and acceptance of composite materials
Qualification of FRP and SRP composites
It is mandatory that Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) and Steel Reinforced Polymer (SRP) composites, like all construction materials, are qualified in order for them to be included in the design and accepted in the construction site. The Guidelines “Linea Guida per la identificazione, la qualificazione ed il controllo di accettazione di compositi fibrorinforzati a […]

Rilem TC 250-CSM Round Robin Test on TRMs
Description Textile Reinforced Mortar (TRM) composites are an effective, compatible and cost-efficient solution for repairing and strengthening existing structures. Recent research studies provided fundamental information on their tensile and bond properties as well as on the behaviour of retrofitted structural members. At the same time, important industrial developments made many systems available for applications […]
