GFRP rebars are extensively used in the construction of jetties, seawalls, marine docks, and other coastal structures. These environments are highly corrosive due to the presence of saltwater, which can significantly degrade traditional steel reinforcement over time.
It provides the necessary tensile strength to support these structures while resisting the harsh marine conditions.
They do not corrode in salty and moist environments, making them ideal for use in coastal construction, where saltwater exposure is a constant issue.
The use of GFRP rebars lowers maintenance costs over time, as the structures they reinforce require less upkeep due to the absence of rust and corrosion issues common with steel rebars.
Its durability extends the life of coastal structures, reducing the need for frequent repairs or replacements and ensuring the long-term integrity of the construction.
It has a high strength-to-weight ratio, which is particularly beneficial in coastal construction where reducing the load on foundations can be crucial due to unstable or soft soil conditions.
Beyond saltwater, it is also resistant to the effects of UV light and chemicals, providing additional protection in diverse coastal environments where these factors can also affect the longevity and safety of marine structures.
