Wasted glass was turned into sand for polymer concrete to be used in building Polymer concrete is a high strength, water-resistant material suited to areas with heavy traffic such as service ...

Technical Terms Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP): Composite material composed of high-strength fibres embedded within a polymer matrix, used to augment the tensile properties of concrete structures.

Abstract: Rehabilitation and strengthening of old structures using advanced materials is a contemporary research in the field of Structural Engineering. During past two decades, much research has been ...

A feasibility study in which a pultruded fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) plank was used as stay-in-place (SIP) form serving as formwork during wet stage and as reinforcement during hardened stage is ...

Scientists say the chemical polymer can not only turn toxic waste into harmless bricks, but it could also be cheaper and stronger than normal concrete.
