A composite material made of a polymer

reinforced with fibres.

Consists of thermosetting resins and glass

fibre.
Benefits of GFRP

. High Strength
. Lightweight
. Resistance
. Design flexibility
. Seamless Construction
. Low maintenance
. Durability
 Composite Constituents

• Resins
• Reinforcements
• Fillers
• Additives
 MATERIALS
REINFORCEMENT
RESINS
• Used as base material for • Glass fibre is the
reinforcement layer. reinforcement in this plastic
• Transfer stress between
reinforcing fibres and to
protect them from
mechanical and
environmental damage.
 FIBRE GEOMETRY
ALLIGNED FIBRES
• In this type of alignment, the fibres are woven parallel to each
other
RANDOM FIBRES
• In this type of alignment, the fibres are woven randomly
according to a specific density.
WOVEN FIBRES
• In this type of alignment, the fibres are woven in the shape of a
net. It is the strongest among the three.
 MANUFACTURE

• Plastic is manufactured by addition polymerization and step

growth polymerization .
• It is known as matrix.
• The plastic which is under polymerization is mixed with glass
fibre, enhance the strength and elasticity of the plastic.
• This results in the formation of Glass Fibre Reinforced Plastic
(GFRP)
Applications
GFRP can be used for both interior and
exterior fixtures in a variety of shapes, styles,
and textures; in new buildings or restorative
projects.

 ARCHITECTURAL USES AND
ADVANTAGES:-
- Due to its translucent nature and less weight, it is used as a roofing material in
various places . It also helps to allow only partial light through it.
- Due its cost efficiency, it is even used as partitioning material between two spaces.
- It can be easily shaped due to its more elasticity.
- It is a good heat resisting material.
- Has a very high strength to weight ratio
- Low weights of 2 to 4 lbs. per square foot means, Faster installation, less structural
framing, and lower shipping costs
- Resists salt water, chemicals, and the environment - unaffected by acid rain,
salts, and most chemicals
- Domes and cupolas are resigned together to form a one-piece, watertight,
structurable to Mold Complex Shapes Virtually any shape or form can be
molded
- Research shows no loss of laminate properties after 30 years
- Stromberg GFRP stood up to category 5 hurricane Floyd with no damage, while
nearby structures were destroyed, this gives a clear example about the
strength of it
RATES:

It rates of about 400-500Rs/sq.metre
