Fiber glass rebar are also called GFRP rebar, or fiberglass rebar, so many friends are confused, what is the difference between fiber glass rebar and ordinary bars, and where are fiber glass rebar used?
What is fiber glass rebar
Fiber glass rebar is a kind of glass fiber reinforced composite material, which is formed by thermal fusion of glass fiber and resin. After comparing the fiber glass rebar with steel bars, it can be found that its tensile strength is stronger than that of steel bars, but its weight is lighter than that of steel bars. It has strong corrosion resistance and good static shear force, but its dynamic shear force is relatively weak. Poor, low elastic modulus, cannot be processed on site, except for cutting.
Application fields of fiber glass rebar
Because of its high tensile strength, corrosion resistance, and easy cutting properties, fiber glass rebar are mainly used in subway shield projects to replace ordinary steel bars. Now, more and more friends are starting to use them in highways, airport terminals, and foundation pits. Support, bridges, coastal engineering and other fields began to use.
