ISO 10406-3 Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Reinforcement of Concrete - Test Methods - CFRP Strips

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ISO 10406-3 testing. This standard specifies test methods applicable to unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) strips as externally bonded reinforcements on a concrete substrate.

This standard applies to CFRP strips with the following specifications:

• Composed of carbon fiber and thermoset resin;
• They are produced by the pultrusion method;
• has a higher carbon fiber fraction of over 60%; And
• It should have a thickness within 3 mm.

Also, to determine the tensile properties, test pieces are cut from CFRP strips along the axis of the CFRP strips and the anchor block is glued at both ends.

CFRP stands for "Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer" and CFRP strips are a type of FRP reinforcement used to strengthen and improve the performance of concrete structures. CFRP strips are made of carbon fibers embedded in a polymer matrix that provides high tensile strength and light weight properties.

Compliance with the test methods specified in ISO 10406-3 ensures that CFRP strips used as concrete reinforcement meet the required quality and performance standards. This standard assists engineers, manufacturers and test labs to accurately evaluate and compare different CFRP strip products for specific engineering applications.
