Fibre‑Reinforced Polymer (FRP) is the broad class of composite materials in which high‑strength fibres are embedded in a polymer matrix. This entity hub connects the FRP concept to its formal definitions, material property data, and related resources within the FRPSPEC knowledge system.
For formal definitions and scope boundaries, refer to the dedicated definition pages:
- What is FRP — Full definition and classification
- What is FRP Grating — Definition and structural context
Material‑level property data is maintained separately:
- FRP Composite Material Characteristics — Physical and mechanical properties
- GFRP Material Data — E‑glass‑specific values
Standardisation and industry guidance are available from technical committees such as ASTM D20 (Plastics) and the American Composites Manufacturers Association. The Wikipedia entry on Fibre‑reinforced plastic provides a neutral, citation‑rich overview of the material class.
