Material and Strength Properties of FRP Piping (How does it differ from Steel?)
Why take this course?
This self-paced course introduces the unique material properties of Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) piping systems, highlighting key differences from steel. Participants will learn about FRP’s bi-axial strength, distinctions between short- and long-term properties, and the role of long-term regression tests in defining material strength. Includes video lectures, quizzes, and a certificate with PDH credits.
About the course
New to FRP piping systems? Their material properties differ significantly from steel, this course will show you how. In this Self-Paced course, participants will learn in detail about: the bi-axial strength properties of FRP, the important differences between FRP and steel, how the long-term and short-term FRP properties differ, how long-term regression tests are used to define the material strength.
