Sumario:Repairing or strengthening failing metallic structures traditionally involves using bulky and heavy external steel plates that often pose their own problems. The plates are generally prone to corrosion and overall fatigue. Fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP), a composite material made of a polymer matrix reinforced with fibres, offers a great alternative for strengthening metallic structures, especially steel structures such as bridges, buildings, offshore platforms, pipelines, and crane structures. FRP-Strengthened Metallic Structures explores the behaviour and design of these structures, from bas.
