Abstract
Fibre reinforced plastic (FRP) materials have been used in a wide range of applications for decades. Showing generally high performance, FRPs offer considerable potential within the general field of building and construction. Some countries have national programmes of research, but in the UK there is an urgent need for the development of a strategy for co-ordinated research and for simple design guidance. It sets out the current position of FRPs as reinforcement for concrete and gives recommendations for the way forward.
