Composites in Construction

Composites are successfully being used into the construction industry since the 1960s and have many applications such as load bearings, infill panels, pressure pipes, tank liners and rules. This material is time saving, durable and makes it possible to make repair changes of structures in-situ, High strength aesthetic and low maintenance. It contributes to a lower cost of construction without sacrificing structural stability. These are corrosion resistant and that can be used in corrosive environment such as piping salt water and ductwork.

Further more composites are also naturally good electrical insulators they are flexible in design so can be moulded into shapes which helps in the most complex building design where structural or decorative is achievable. Composite materials are environment friendly, which enhances their use as a tremendous positive impact on the environment making them a preferred choice for uses in many industries such as construction
