FIBER REINFORCED POLYMER
 IT IS A STRENTHENING MATERIAL USED IN
RETROFITTING AND RENOVATION OF
STRUCTURAL MEMBERS.

 IT ALSO GIVES EXTENSIVE LIFE TO

STRUCTURE .

 IT ALSO REDUCES THE EFEECT OF NATURAL

DISASTERS.
FIBER REINFORCED POLYMERS
ATTRIBUTES.
 RESISTANT TO ANY ION AND CHEMICAL
ATTACK.
 TENSILE STRENGTH GREATER THAN STEEL.
 1/4TH WEIGHT OF STEEL REINFORCEMENT.
 TRANSPARENT TO MAGNETIC FIELD AND
RADIO FREQUENCIES.
 ELECTRICALLY AND THERMALLY NON
CONDUCTIVE.
WHY FRP IS USED?

 FRP NOT ONLY PROVIDES STRENGTH BUT

ALSO GIVES LONG LIFE TO STRUCTURES.

 IT IS A SOLUTION FOR RCC STRUCTURES

DISPLAY SIGN OF CORROSION DISTRESS
WITHIN 15-20 YEARS OF THEIR SERVICE LIFE.

 A SOLUTON FOR CONDITIONS CAUSED BY

RUSTING OF STEEL DUE TO ENVIRONMENTAL
FACTORS .
A CRACK MAY CAUSE BUILDING TO
COLLAPSE THUS FRP IS A BOON.
 TYPES OF FIBER
REINFORCE POLYMER.
THERE ARE THREE TYPES OF FIBER
REINFORCED POLYMERS:

 CARBON FIBERS.
 GLASS FIBERS.
 ARAMID FIBERS.
 GLASS AND ARAMID FIBERS

 HAVE HIGH STRENGTH WHEN LOAD ACTS PERPENDICULAR

TO THE AXIS OF FIBERS.
 HAVE HIGH ELASTICITY MODULUS THAN STEEL.
TYPES OF TEST CONDUCTED

 CYLINDRICAL COLUMN TEST.

 TEST ON BEAM AT SINGLE POINT

LOAD.

 TEST ON BEAM AT TWO POINT

LOADS.
CYLINDRICAL COLUMN TEST

IN THIS CYLINDRICAL COLUMNS ARE TESTED

BY U.T.M WITHOUT USING FIBER REINFORCED
POLYMER TO FIND OUT ITS AXIAL
COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH.
 FAILURE OF BEAM AT
SINGLE POINT LOAD.

IN THIS TEST BEAM WITHOUT FRP FAILS AT

SINGLE POINT LOAD.
 FAILURE OF BEAM AT
TWO POINT LOAD.

IN THIS TEST BEAM FAILED ON APPLICATION OF TWO

POINT LOADS TESTED BY UNIVERSAL TESTING
MACHINE.
 FAILED SECTIONS.

A VIEW OF SECTIONS FAILED DURING THE TESTS.

APPLICATION OF FIBER
REINFORCED POLYMER.

THE COLUMNS AND BEAM SECTIONS

ARE APPLIED AND WRAPPED WITH
FIBER REINFORCED POLYMERS
WRAPPING THE FIBER SHEET
FAILURE OF BEAM WITH FRP
AT SINGLE POINT LOAD.

AFTER APPLYING THE FRP, THE SECTIONS

SHOWED A CONSIDERABLE INCREASE IN
THEIR STRENGTH ABOUT 25%.
FAILURE OF FRP COLUMN.

COLUMN WITH FRP SHOWED A CONSIDERABLE

INCREASE IN STRENGTH ABOUT 62%.
SCOPE IN FUTURE
 THIS TECHNOLOGY IS GETTING FAMOUS
WORLDWIDE
 A GOOD SUPPORT TO STRUCTURES LIKE
PIERS,COLUMNS,CEILINGS,WALLS
 TAKES LESS TIME IN CURING AND
UNAFFECTED BY ANY COMPOUND.
 VERY HELPFUL WHEN SPACE IS LESS AND
RENOVATION IS THE ONLY OPTION.
 CONCLUSION.
 SO WITH THIS WE CAN SAY IT IS NOT
ONLY A GOOD STRENTHENING AGENT
BUT ALSO A HEALTHY SUPPLEMENT TO
THE BUILDINGS TO PREVENT THE
WRECKING AND HAVING A TOTAL NEW
CONSTRUCTION AS WELL AS COST
DOESN’T MATTERS AS IT IS LOWER
THEN NEW CONSTRUCTION.
 THANKS.
WE WOULD LIKE TO PAY OF SINCERE THANKS
TO
MR.MANGESH JOSHI AND SANRACHNA CONSULTANTS
FOR THEIR INCREDIBLE SUPPORT.
