GFRP I beam is usually used to make load bearing piles and columns.The wide side of GFRP I beam and the thickness of the web are approximately the same. In high-rise buildings, I beams supported by columns are also used to carry very high loads. In addition, GFRP I beams provide a counterbalance to external forces in the direction of the parallel and perpendicular webs, and GFRP I beams are particularly suitable for resisting seismic forces.

Forming process of GFRP I beam.

The basic components of pultruded FRP profiles are resin and glass fiber (including cloth, felt, etc.), which are reinforced with fiber (including glass fiber, carbon fiber, organic fiber and other metal and non-metal fiber) and resin (mainly epoxy resin. Polyester resin, phenolic resin) as cross-linking agent, supplemented by other auxiliary materials (main auxiliary materials: mold release agent, curing agent, catalyst, mold sealer, UV light stabilizer, clean mold water, gel coat, etc.) compound.

Performance characteristics of GFRP I beam.

GFRP I beam has corrosion resistance, light weight and high strength, good dimensional stability, as well as insulation, no thermal conductivity, beautiful and easy maintenance, and almost no maintenance cost.

Industries where GFRP I beam is used.

Often used in chemical processing plants, food and beverage processing, paper industry, sewage treatment and transportation industries.

GFRP I beam has structural stability and will not deform over time, and also has good surface characteristics, which helps reduce scaling and has a longer service life. GFRP I beam can be used in various insulating parts, mechanical structural parts and other structural parts in the construction industry, avoiding the various inconveniences once associated with wood in construction, etc.
