5.1.

Theobjective.

To provide a baseline for designing with kemrock FRP columns. Kemrock pultrusions, through
its comprehensive column load test program conducted by group of Design and R & D departments
within Kemrock.
The test is done on the short, intermediate and long columns, ranging from 300mm or one foot to
6000 mm or twenty foot section lengths. The tests were conducted in a reaction frame in the vertical
position, using pinned-pinned end conditions, with the corresponding effective length coefficient (K) of
one.
The columns are axially compressive loaded, with calibrated measurements taken of the axial
deflections and lateral center displacements. Axial load versus lateral displacements were plotted and the
ultimate loads determined. The load is defined as the points on the plots, where the loads no longer
increase due to local, global or bearing failure.

5.2.

Introduction.

In the load tables for compression members represents a thorough investigation on the behavior
of Kemrock FRP columns, to be used as supporting members for engineering structures.
Five section configurations of Kemrock FRP composite columns are studied in the research, as shown in
Figure (a). square tube, round tube, wide-flange, I, and angle sections.

The allowable axial compressive loads can be calculated based on Software and/or design
equations for predicting load capacity of columns with various section configurations; and Written
explanations to relate experimental data with the design equations and procedures.

5.5.

Columnswithgeometricsections.

Bearing strength of the composite material and the column cross-sectional area is limitation for
the short column. In general, the bearing strength of a structural composite is approximately 35000 psi;
therefore, the ultimate strength of short columns with box sections depends upon the cross-sectional area;
for a given area, the columns with box sections appear to have the highest ultimate load capacities among
the columns with other section configurations.
Slenderness ratio KL/r is the function of ultimate column strength for the long columns. The
column strength decreases with an increase in the slenderness ratio. The dividing line at the slenderness
ratio for short and long columns for box sections, appears to be 35. For Columns with Round Sections it

is observed 30, for columns with wide flange sections this vaule is about 40 and for I-Sections it is about
30, for angles it will be about 45 are observed to divide the Short columns and Long columns.

5.6.

FRPColumnTestProgram.

The length of the composite column varies from 1' to 20' to include short, intermediate, and long
column members. Full scale column tests are performed by an axial compressive load in a vertical
position
The composite materials for the column members are constructed of polyester-based and vinyl
ester-based resin matrices, with and without filler for fire retardancy, and with E-glass fibers.

5.6.1. DesignEquationsforBoxSections.
For short columns with box sections, a bearing failure due to axial compressive loading governs the
design equation as follows:

Columns with Round- and I-Sections

For short columns with round- and I-sections, the columns fail due to a combination of axial load and
bending moment. The design equations consider the interaction of bearing and flexural buckling failure.
A linear equation is developed from the test results for the transition behavior as follows:

5.6.2. ColumnswithWideFlangeSections.
For short columns with Wide Flange Sections, local buckling or crippling occurs on the flanges.
According to the test results, the ultimate local buckling stress, ult,l of Wide Flange Section column can

Page45of235

KEMROCK DESIGN MANUAL - R1 - 2012

be predicted by the modified buckling equation of thin plate for


isotropic materials as follows:

It should be noted that the ultimate local buckling strength needs to be checked against bearing
strength. The lower value will be used for the ultimate strength of the short composite column with the
Wide Flange Section. Then, the ultimate strength of the short column is compared with the flexural
buckling strength to determine the dividing point for short and ling columns.
5.6.3. ColumnswithAngleSections.
For short columns with angle sections, the local buckling of the flange occurs, as in the column
with the Wide Flange Section. Thus, the design Equation (4) can also be applied to predict the ultimate
strength of the short columns with angle sections.
5.6.4. DesignEquationsforLongColumns.
The flexural buckling, known as Euler buckling, is the general behavior of long, slender
Kemrock FRP columns under axial compression loads. According to the test results, the ultimate
buckling strength of the composite columns was in agreement with the Euler buckling equation:

(psi) for all long kemrock FRP columns (5)

The equation can be applied to the long FRP composite columns with square-, round-, I-, W-,
and angle- sections; however, for columns with angle-sections, flexural-torsional buckling governs the
ultimate strength. In the test, the coupling of the flexural and torsional buckling was observed in a form
of lateral deflection and global twisting for the angle-section columns. The ultimate flexural-torsional
buckling stress can be approximated by the lower value from equation (5) for flexural buckling strength
about the weak axis, or from the torsional buckling equation as follows:

According to the test results, the coefficient = 0.8 is recommended for Equation (6) to account
for the orthotropic material of the composite, where bf is the width of the local flange element (in); one

Page46of235

half the width for Wide Flange Sections; whole leg width for angle sections.
The effective length coefficient, K-value, in the equation, accounts for the different end
conditions. The K-value is recommended in Table 1. for Kemrock FRP composite columns with
various end supports

TablesforAllowableCompressiveStressesandLoads.

The following tables provide information for the allowable stresses (Fa) and the allowable loads (Pa)
for columns with square tube sections, round sections, Wide Flange Sections, I-sections and anglesections. The tables represent sections used as compressive members (columns). The tables were
developed based on the following criteria
1. Experimental test results are taken to compare theoretical calculations.
2. A safety factor of S.F. =3.
3. Safety factor is taken as 3.0.
4. Value of K is taken as 1.0.
5. Value of E is taken as 3.5X10 psi.

Profiles have been evaluated in a variety of environments. The resulting guidelines should be
consideredifthepultrusionistobeexposedtoenvironmentalattack.

9.1

Temperature.

Pultrusion experiences some property loss from continuous exposure to high temperatures. It is,
therefore, recommended that property loss be taken into consideration during design using the
followingguidelinesforKemrock

KEMROCK DESIGN MANUAL - R1 - 2012

12.1 ManyprofilesarepreFabricated,making onsiteinstallation


easy.
Almost all fabricating methods currently used for wood, aluminum, steel or other materials are
available for fabrication of fiber reinforced polymer pultrusion.
To Fabricate Kemrock Profiles with complete success, the following techniques should be
followed:

Router bits should be diamond-coated or metal bonded.


Punches work better with a slight shear edge & punch press.
Cutting speeds should be moderately fast (3,450 rpm).
Drilling speeds should take hole size and thickness into consideration.
Lag screws are not recommended for fastening FRP to metal.
Solvents, such as methylene chloride or acetone, should be used to prepare surface for bonding or
coating.
A medium coarse grinding wheel is preferable to the finer grades.
Counter support is necessary when drilling hollow profiles.

Each operation requires some change in technique or some modifications of equipment.


When fabricating, the most important characteristics of pultrusion are: it is a fibrous material with
a grain (very much like wood) ; it is quite abrasive: it will bend. Although working with a
fiberglass profile is similar to working with wood, it is uniquely a pultrusion and has its own
characteristics. Explaining the nature of pultrusion fabrication is the purpose of this section of the
manual.

12.2 FabricationofKemrockStructuralProfiles.
Before fabricating Kemrock Profiles, several characteristics of the product itself should be
recognized. These considerations Apply to every phase of each operation.
1. Fiberglass is extremely abrasive. Tools, such as saw blades, router bits or punches, will wear
quickly. Production problems will occur unless this problem is anticipated.

Diamond-coated edges and blades are the best.


Frequent tool sharpening is common.
Maintaining an at-hand inventory of saw blades, punches and other cutting tools is
recommended.
Some re-tooling is common for heavy production.

2. Fiberglass is dusty during fabrication.

Wear dusk masks or respirators, long-sleeved shirts or coats.


Minor health problems, such as skin irritation, may be experienced by some workers.
Machines, such as saws, should have totally enclosed dustproof motors or better.

Page191of235

KEMROCK DESIGN MANUAL - R1 - 2012

Machines their supports and their general vicinities should be cleaned frequently. Dust
and glass particles will build and become abrasive; and the machine will become
damaged.
Dust collector or vacuum hoses should be placed near fabricating areas for dust
collection.

3. Fiberglass, though strong, is also elastic. Kemrock is typically produced in 20-foot-40 foot59-foot lengths. Because of its greater length, increase in elasticity, war page or twist may be
experienced.

Rigid support is needed for all fabrication procedures.


Clamps, tie-downs and vices should be in incorporated before and after a section is to
cut.
Process designers should individualize clamp and support systems for each profile for
each fabrication procedure. What is typical for aluminum is not necessarily appropriate
for Pultruded profiles. Rigidity is mandatory.

4. Fiberglass will degrade if exposed to friction. Ragged edges and material splits could result.

Always use appropriate machine speeds in each operation.


The greater the thickness, the slower the cutting or drilling speed.

5. Exposed fibers will absorb more moisture or other contaminants than resin-coated fibers.
When fabricating, the surface coating of resin is broken and fibers are exposed; therefore, it is
always a good practice to coat fabricated areas with resin to prevent attack from the elements,
whether it be corrosive agents or simple weathering.
6. All fastening procedures should be carefully appraised. Prototype testing should be included
in the decision process.

Experience has demonstrated that mechanical fasteners and a good adhesive bond are the
best procedures.
Choosing the correct adhesive is mandatory; bonding surfaces should be carefully
prepared.
Process engineering should know the final product application and environment when
considering fastening systems.
Fiberglass is a composite in which many variables are operating, such ultra-violet
exposure, chemical and temperature factors, and mechanical requirements. All fastening
systems should take these variables into account.
Never assume that what works with aluminum, bronze or wood will suffice for FRP.
Concurrently, never assume that it wont. it is best to check first.

7. Kemrock Profiles are composites that are engineered into laminate sections. Do Not Rigidly
impose the fabrication requirement of homogenous materials, such as aluminum Or cold
rolled steel, on FRP, without first considering the composite characteristics of Kemrock.

Properly understood, FRP will fabricate as well as any other material.

Page192of235

KEMROCK DESIGN MANUAL - R1 - 2012

Tolerances, punch clearances and hole sizing should be gauged to the fibrous
characteristics of FRP.

12.3 Adhesives/Bonding.
Consult Creative Pultrusion for adhesive recommendations for your needs. Adhesive are an
integral factor in fastening Kemrock Profiles. As has been detailed, adhesive should be used
in combination with other fastening devices whenever possible.
Thousand of formula for adhesive exists; the basic ones used with Kemrock are.
Epoxies.
Acrylics.
Polyesters.

12.4 AdvantagesofAdhesives.

Distributes stress more uniformly.


Permit fabrication at a lower cost and weight for structures that are mechanically
equivalent to or stronger that conventional assembly.
Bond thin sections to thick sections; thus; make use of the full strength of each section.
Produce smooth surfaces.
Eliminate defacing of exposed surfaces.
Reduce Weight.
Join dissimilar materials.
Accommodate differences in thermal expansion.
Permit profile movement with flexible adhesives.
Seal surfaces and joints.
Accommodate thin or fragile profiles.

12.5 BondedShearJointConcepts.
The behavior of bonded joints is further challenged by several significant variables which
require an understanding of the mechanics of configuration necessary for efficient and
successful design.
Four basic stresses are associated with joint behavior: tensile, shear, cleavage and peel.
Cleavage and peel stresses involving large stress gradients through the joint.
Joints developing direct tension of shear stresses are stronger more reliable than joints
subjected to cleavage and peel stresses.

Page193of235

KEMROCK DESIGN MANUAL - R1 - 2012

12.5.1.JointStresses.

Symmetry of load transfer through a joint is to be held in highest esteem. (This axiom is also
true for any material and connectors, such as bolts or welds.) Non-symmetrical joints induce
couples, which must be resisted by cleavage or peel stresses.
With adhesive joints, flexibility of either the adhesive or the joined components is an
advantage because it permits the connecting elements to rotate into alignment with the
applied forces, thereby reducing the couple, effect in the glue line. The geometric design
of the joint can be used to improve strength and efficiency; for example, where a single lap
joint is a very inefficient joint, it can be improved by using a low-modulus adhesive or
beveling the joined elements to introduce some flexibility. The eccentricity of the joint may
also be reduced by using a scarf type lap. (CAUTION: the desired stiffness of the joint must
be observed if a joint is designed to maximize flexibility. Both cannot be achieved at the
same time.)
The strength of a single lap (or any other nonsymmetrical joint) is not proportional to its size
due to the stress concentration at the edges. The usual mechanism of failure in an adhesive
joint is a crack propagation process initiating at points of high tensile stress; thus, failure is
progressive and limited to a very small localized region at any given time, indicating that the
overall size of the joint may be irrelevant to the total strength of the joint. Anything done to
avoid the stress concentration will improve the integrity of the joint. The use of mechanical
fasteners in cleavage stress regions, and void or crack-free glue lines, are methods in which
joints can be strengthened.

12.6 SurfacePreparation.
The bond strength of an adhesive can be no better than the lap sheer strength of the
interlaminate material itself; in other words, surface is bonded to surface, resin to resin.
The fiberglass reinforcement has little to do with achieving the bond strength.
The major fact in bonding Kemrock Profiles is this: because the profiles have been
manufactured with a formulated mold-release, many adhesive will not react properly.

Page194of235

KEMROCK DESIGN MANUAL - R1 - 2012

Mold release agents rise to the surface of the profile during the manufacturing process. By
removing this outer layer through proper surface preparation, the overly smooth surface can
be abraded. Also, the majority of mold release agents will be removed. The procedures for
surface preparation in painting can also apply.

12.7 GuidelinesforSurfacePreparation.
1. Wipe contaminated surfaces with a solvent styrene, toluene or methyl alcohol.
2. Wipe surface dry.
3. Remove surface film by sanding or light sand blasting. Surface gloss should be
removed.
4. Air blast the surface to remove any remaining dust. ( A void recontamination by rehandling ! )
5. Mix and apply adhesive 3 to 5 mils thick. Be certain that all surfaces and any glass
fibers have been covered.
6. Clamp, screw and / or fasten the bonded surface.
o
Allow for proper cure time :
o Ovens will shorten the cure time.
o A minimum of 20 to 40 hours is an average length of time for many
adhesive to bond.
o A structure should not be exposed to its designed load limit until 48 hours
have passed.
7. Always follow the adhesive manufacturers recommendations.

Cutting / Sawing:
The most common cuts are : (1) straight lines, (2) 20 - 80 angles, (3) ripping and (4)
concentric cuts. Different saws are not required for cutting profiles of different resin systems;
however, adequate support is necessary for all cutting procedures. Clamps are the preferred
method for the hold-down function. These Clamps can be either air cylinder hold-downs or

Page196of235

KEMROCK DESIGN MANUAL - R1 - 2012

the wide range of welding clamps such as the De-Sta-Co type. Precise cuts can be made if the
profile is fastened on each side of the cut-line. Because dust will obscure the cutting marks
and the heat of the saw may burn the material, it is advisable to use is not an issue, shape is.

12.11 CuttingProcedures.

1. Blades should be diamond or carbide coated for large production; diamond blades should
be 30 to 40 mesh.
2. Tolerances should be no less than 1/16 inches for large production.
3. Very often another more precise cutting is needed as a secondary procedure.
4. Precision cuts are also made with a (diamond tipped) jig saw.
5. When mitering as end-cut, permit to 1 inch waste area.
6. Infrequent circular cuts could use a metal cutting blade, although it will be dull after one cut.
7. Carbide-coated masonry blades are recommended for on-site fabrication.
8. For large section cuts, use the following :
a) Begin with a power band saw for multiple cuts.
b) Use a circular saw and then invert material to finish the cuts.

12.12 OperatingTips.
1.
2.
3.
4.

When the edges begin to fray, reduce the saw speed.


If Pultruded are covered with nico or veil material, cut visible side face-up.
Use a light, even touch!
The thicker the profile, the slower the cut. Time must be taken and a saw with adequate
horsepower used.
5. Excessively high speed will make the edges ragged and the diamonds will peel off the saw
blade.
Design Note
For hollow sections with thin walls (0.080 inches and under), counter supports may have to be
designed to fit into the cavity or, you may need to purposely schedule a second-cut procedure.
Unique custom profiles often require unique cut-off operations and equipments.
Drilling
Drilling Kemrock Profiles is an easy, routine operation. Re-design of equipment is generally
unnecessary. Standard twist drills are more than adequate for low production, but cobalt-bits are
best for high production. Carbide-tipped bits are not required.

12.13 ParametersforDrilling.
Drilling of Kemrock Profiles is standard for sections with thickness of .187 inches or thicker.
Holes drilled in Kemrock Profiles are generally undersized by .002 inches to .005 inches. A 1/8inch drill bit will not make a hole large enough for a 1/8-inch rivet. A No. 30 bit is necessary. the
drill bit in order to compensate for any shrinkage variation in fastener dimensions.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.

Drill Kemrock Profiles as you would drill hard wood.


Feed drills slowly, even with higher speeds.
For profiles with surfacing veils, drill from the visible side to the non-visible side.
Off-centering can be a problem in mass production; use bushings for this procedure.
For riveting holes, use suppliers recommended clearance.
For larger holes, a back-up plate of wood or receiving bushing will prohibit fracturing or
breakouts on the backside of the material.

Design Note
For round, hollow profiles and custom, hollow profiles use sturdy counter-supports from within the
following sections.

Mat-reinforced pultrusion (thermo set) can be punched to closer tolerances than


those containing high roving.

Page198of235

KEMROCK DESIGN MANUAL - R1 - 2012

1. Reinforced fiberglass is resilient.

The hold-down systems should be designed very carefully to compensate for this
resiliency.
Strippers are mandatory.
Lubrication will gather the fiber and dust particles, thus quickly jamming the punch.
A clean machine and work area at all times should eliminate this problem.

2.

Kemrock Profiles can deviate from specified tolerances regarding thickness, war page,
twist and straightness. Though the deviation may not extend beyond acceptable limits,
punching accuracy and alignment may be affected.

System designers must take into account the degree of variance from specified
tolerances.
System flexibility should be designed into the punching system.
Due to the flexibility of a Pultruded profile, proper clamp-down systems can
alleviate most of the problems associated with profile deviations.

12.14 OtherusefulGuidelinesforPunching.
1. Some useful parameters are :

Oversize all holes by .020 to .030 inches.


The punched holes will range from .010 to .020 inches smaller than the
punching die.
The larger the hole, the cleaner the punch.
Material thickness to be punched will range from .070 to .187 inches.

2. For riveting, punched holes occasionally have to be re drilled especially in parts with
thickness of 1/8 inch of thicker.
3. Material Differences :

Mat reinforced materials can be punched with exactness, especially when bushings
are used.
Profiles with surfacing veils are punched from the non-visible to visible side.

4. A laminate .070 inches thick by 43 feet long, with a hole punched every 2 inches, has been
punched successfully.
5. For materials 3/16-inch thick, rivet holes can be placed every 6-8 inches; for bolting, the
holes should be 8-12 inches (203.2 mm 304.8 mm).
6. The depth of a punch should be twice the thickness of the laminate.
7. When punching hollow profiles, use strong counter supports, such as mandrels or bottom
carriage rests.

Page199of235

KEMROCK DESIGN MANUAL - R1 - 2012

12.15 Shearing.
Similar to punching, shearing is possible with Kemrock Profiles. Profiles of 3/16-inch or
thinner have been sheared successfully in production.
Shearing is very useful for large production, particularly in very thin laminates (.070 to .090
inches). Thicker profiles (.125 to .187 inches 0 can be sheared on flat sections, but shearing of
profiles with multiple contours are best cut with a saw.
The rules for punching also apply to shearing, especially those rules referring to angles.
All shearing should be done perpendicular to any continuous fibers in the laminate.
Shearing should be perpendicular to the longitudinal reinforcements. Cuts must be clean.
Consideration of the shear angle should be of primary importance before specifying this
procedure. Small profiles with a thickness not exceeding 3/16 inches can be sheared if the
punch and profile are designed together.

12.16 Painting.
For most applications, internal coloration and a variety of surface treatments eliminate the need
for secondary coating operations. Situations exist, however, when paints are used to improve
the weathering properties or the appearance of a Pultruded profile.
For improved weathering, urethane coating are recommended as they have superior ultraviolet
resistance and adhere well to the Pultruded substrate. Urethane-coated Kemrock Profiles have
exposed to advanced weathering, equivalent to 30 years of exposure, with no loss in insulation
properties and only a slight loss in mechanical properties. Non-skid coating are available for
slip resistant surfaces. These coatings are available from several supplier and in a wide range of
colors.

12.17 SurfacePreparation.
Due to fact that the pultrusion process requires internal mold releases, it is essential that, prior
to any painting or coating, the surface be properly prepared. The mold releases are a form of
wax that creates a film on the surface of the profile to be removed. It can be accomplished with
several methods:
Solvent wiping is the simplest method of surface preparation. Several solvents will
attack the mold release films. Some of these are toluene, xylene, acetone, or styrene.
Sanding will also adequately prepare the surface; however, when you break the surface
at times, you will expose minor imperfections that become quite visible when paint is
applied. A sand and fill primer can be applied to help this situation.

Page200of235

KEMROCK DESIGN MANUAL - R1 - 2012

Sand-blasting can be used as a surface preparation technique, but exhibits the same problems as
sanding.
It is best to follow the paint manufacturers recommendations for the application of any type of
coating.
