Construction is one of the largest markets for composites globally. This Reinforced Plastics feature reports on trends in composites in construction and innovative applications utilising FRP materials.

According to a recent report, demand for composties in construction applications in China is producing double-digit growth there, while in North America construction applications are expected to expand at a rate of about 5% a year through 2013. In Europe, growth will average over 6% in the same period.

This feature looks at some of the current applications for fibre reinforced plastic (FRP) composites in construction and their benefits over traditional building materials.
