Abstract

A comprehensive review is conducted on the failures in the field of manufacturing and installation of E-glass fiber reinforced pipes (GFRP). Some of the failures which are mainly encountered after the installation of E-Glass fiber reinforced pipes are the for nation of air bubbles in between the polyester resin layer and the surface film, dispersion of moisture in between the tubing outer and inner layers after installation, heat released in between the layers of E-glass fiber reinforced pipes due to exothermic reaction which in turn results in the formation of cracks on the surface of the pipe. The recent findings and challenges performed in conducting research regarding the deterioration caused in glass fiber reinforced pipes are highlighted and each type of failure that was identified was illustrated with an appropriate high resolution photograph. Performing creep resistance and fatigue analysis are new aspects which are still requited to be analyzed which ave not been stated in the literature which are nominated.
