• Repair technologies<br />
• Case studies
Sustainability and rehabilitation using FRPs 16<br />
Why use FRP?<br />
• Impervious to corrosion<br />
• ¼ weight of steel<br />
• 100 to 400% strength of steel<br />
• Low modulus

Constraints<br />
• Minimum intervention<br />
• Change of function/use (e.g. public)<br />
• Repair rather than replace or reconstruction<br />
• Remove source of <strong>de</strong>gradation<br />
• Combination of various materials<br />
• Rehabilitation should be reversible<br />
• Design life<br />
• high performance materials
Sustainability and rehabilitation using FRPs 29<br />
Three main phases<br />
• Diagnosis of existing conditions<br />
• Evaluation and characterization of repairs<br />
• Long term monitoring<br />
• Non Destructive Evaluation<br />
▫ Q/A: encapsulation, <strong>de</strong>pth, moisture…<br />
▫ Q/C: bond strength, durability tests

Conventional techniques<br />
• Add “<strong>de</strong>ad weight” to the repaired structure<br />
• Subject to corrosion and vandalism<br />
• Tedious to install<br />
• 99% custom ma<strong>de</strong><br />
• Aesthetically unsatisfactory<br />
• Costly and ugly

EBR limitations<br />
• Require heavy surface preparation<br />
• May require several layers<br />
• Remain exposed<br />
• Aesthetic compromise<br />
• Application subject to weather conditions<br />
• Soffit of beams and columns<br />
• Messy and wasted efficiency
