1- I used CFRP Plates in several projects : 

-developed analytical and numerical models to predict the long terme mechanical behavior of concrete/CFRP assemblies.

-Internal reinforcement and rheabilitation of water pipelines by the use of CFRP (development of a robot).

2- Natural and synthetic fibers.

FRP: Fiber reinforced plastic, can you tell me where you used it?

 

Not having any answers isn't strange, because everybody still designs in traditional steel rebar.

We have used plastic fibers for getting smaller cracks in the concrete, we have used steel fibers , also as structural rebar, and we have used basalt fibre end basalt rebar as structural rebar in concrete. Problem with all of them is that people don't want new products, or be the first one to use it, because of regulations
