Here are some common questions

Restraining the bottom clip on the underside of the grating tighten the M8 bolt ensuring the slot in the clip engages on to the FRP load bar and the other end is under the support flange.Tighten until the grating is firmly clipped to the structure.

There are four main types of fibers commonly used in the FRP industry;glass, carbon, natural and arimid. Each has their own advantages and applications.

Routers are great for trimming and shaping the edges of your FRP panels, whether creating bevels, rounded edges, or detailed profiles. Select a router bit that can withstand the hardness and abrasiveness of FRP, such as ones made from tungsten carbide or diamond-tipped materials.

FRP is a composite material that's manufactured by combiningfibreglass with resin. It is fibreglass which gives FRP gratings its extraordinary strength and specific properties in the resin provide excellent corrosive properties.

Thelong-term temperature resistance is poor. Generally,Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic can not be used at high temperature for a long time. The strength of general purpose polyester decreases obviously when it is above 50°C. Generally, it is only used below 100° C.

Laminated FRP panels with factory bonded substrates of wood, drywall, extruded foam or gypsummay be applied to wood or metal studs(proper gauge studs must be used for panel selected), furring strips, solid walls, ceiling joists are used as dividers.

In general, pultruded fiberglass grating has a service life of20-30 years, depending on the specific type of grating and the conditions in which it is used. This is significantly longer than other types of grating materials, such as steel or wood, which typically have a service life of just 10-15 years.

Various additives used for enhancing some properties can increase the overall tensile capacity and endurance of FRP products, including rebar, silos, tanks, etc.The tensile strength of fibre rebar is 20% higher in comparison with a steel bar.

Of course, it can, with enough brute force you can break just about anything. The difference is that it won't just fail on its own provided it was manufactured properly. If something hits it hard enough, however, it could indeed break but it would need A LOT of force to do so.

Fiberglass grating offers comparable strength to steel but with added benefits like improved impact resistance and flexibility. While comparable in strength, FRP grating is significantly lighter than steel, making it easier to install without heavy lifting equipment.
