Sponsor(s): Cedex and Owens Corning

ACI Co-Sponsored:

ACI Closed Event: False

Description:
The objective is to present the state-of-the-art of the fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforced concrete to the Spanish construction sector, as a corrosion resistance alternative. Mainly interesting to all agents involved in the design and construction of construction works specially exposed to environmental corrosion. It is intended to publicize the available international regulatory framework and show the experience acquired in other countries, mainly in the United States and Europe. As well as highlighting the economic and environmental benefits derived from its high durability. It is also intended to collect and show some isolated and specific Spanish experiences and put in contact different Spanish professional: researchers, designers, constructors, people responsible for product quality control and civil servant engineers; both those who have already started to work on this topic and those who may be interested in the future. The ultimate goals are both to discuss the future of FRP reinforced concrete in Spain, laying the foundations of a future practical guide and national regulations, and to interest the Spanish authorities with competence in products certification and structure regulations.
