Abstract
It is crucial to introduce new progressive and cost-effective materials with increased strength characteristics. To decrease metal consumption while manufacturing is a task of vital importance, especially for the building industry. The cost of metal reinforcement elements determines the total cost of a construction. Non-metall materials and constructions should be used in building technologies. We have conducted a comparative analysis for characteristics of metal and composite reinforcing elements, their methods of production and fields of application. We suggest that composite material strength characteristics should be enhanced by change in cross-section and shape as well by introduction of elements with enhanced characteristics. We have examined technological solutions that propose change of the shape of cross- and axial sections. We have also suggested practical schemes for reinforcement element placement and proposed employment of elements with different cross-sections. The methodology and basic strategies used to design composite reinforcing elements with polyfunctional characteristics are also described in the present paper.
