the performance of FRP corrugated tube
A. High strength
FRP is stronger than structural steel on a pound-for pound basis. It has been used to
buildings,walkway, sub-floors and platforms.
B. Light weight
FRP is 20-25% the weight of steel and 70% the weight of aluminum. FRP are easily
transported, handled and lifted into place. Total structures can often be preassembled
and shipped to the job site ready to installation.
C. Anti-corrosion
FRP will not rot and are impervious to a broad range of corrosive elements. This
feature makes FRP a natural selection for indoor or outdoor structures in pulp and
paper mills, chemical plants, water and sewage treatment plants, structural near salt
water and other corrosive environments.
D. Electro-magnetic transparency
FRP are transparent to radio waves, microwaves and other electromagnetic. It is widely
used to make antennas.
E. Non-conductive
FRP has low thermal/ electrical conductivity.
F. Dimensional stability
The coefficient of thermal expansion of FRP is slightly less than steel and significantlyless than aluminum.
