{"product_id":"frp-composite-structures-hota-v-s-gangarao-9781032052519","title":"FRP Composite Structures: Theory, Fundamentals, and Design","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe use of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites in infrastructure systems has grown considerably in recent years because of the durability of composite materials. New constituent materials, manufacturing techniques, design approaches, and construction methods are being developed and introduced in practice by the FRP composites community to cost-effectively build FRP structural systems. \u003ci\u003eFRP Composite Structures: Theory, Fundamentals, and Design \u003c\/i\u003ebrings clarity to the analysis and design of these FRP composite structural systems to advance the field implementation of structural systems with enhanced durability and reduced maintenance costs. It develops simplified mathematical models representing the behavior of beams and plates under static loads, after introducing generalized Hooke's Law for materials with anisotropic, orthotropic, transversely isotropic, and isotropic properties. Subsequently, the simplified models coupled with design methods including FRP composite material degradation factors are introduced by solving a wide range of practical design problems.
