Abstract
In the last 25 years, fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite
materials have been considered to be used in various civil
engineering applications such as the cooling tower system, waste
water treatment plant, pedestrian bridges, reinforced concrete
rebars, structure strengthening members, and some metallic
sensitive specialized buildings. This review of study is only
concentrated on the experimental investigation of GFRP composite
compression members made from glass-fiber and polyester-based
and vinylester-based polymers in a pultrusion process.
