Abstract

The good ratio between strength and dead load defines the composite material as an efficacious solution for structural rehabilitation of historical buildings. The composite material with polymeric matrix, known with FRP acronym (Fiber Reinforced Polymers), is widely used in civil engineering as sheets, bars and strips. Recently a new technology was adopted to improve the structural response — with limited increment of dead load — with reversible and independent solution. The GFRP pultruded profiles allow the building of all-composite structure both for over elevation frame, structures and beams for increment of flexural stiffness of deck. The present work proposes and analyses the solution for seismic behaviour GFRP (Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers) applications to evaluate the performances respect to dynamic actions considering the global effect on historical structure.
