Architectural Solutions
With traditional building materials like wood, steel and aluminum, adding strength means adding size and weight. Engineered Structures offers an alternative with more design flexibility.
Applications
Structural FRP handrail systems, parking garage and HVAC screens, enclosures, stairs, walkways and decking are some of the design options. Our engineers can also provide a custom solution.
Advantages
- Light weight, high strength - may reduce support requirements
- Corrosion resistant - fiberglass structural shapes won't rot, rust, warp or bow
- Long-lasting - lower lifetime cost than traditional building materials
- Dimensional stability - no shrinking or swelling
- Nonconductive - won't conduct electricity
- Nonmagnetic - can be used around sensitive electronic equipment
- Low thermal conductivity - it's a good insulator
- RF transparent - doesn't interfere with radio waves
- Impact resistant - distributes impact load to prevent surface damage
