FRP has high strength and weight, resistance to corrosion and environmental degradation, cost effectiveness and durability. This revised new edition adds a chapter on performance under large deformation cyclic, impact and blast loading. Now with CNT modified epoxy, shear and torsion, CFRP-strengthening, fatigue design and connections.
