- This paper provides experimental insight into joints for buildings of Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) for sustainable built environment. It identifies the weaknesses in past research on FRP joints and proposes a new method for evaluating experimental results for the benefit of the construction industry. The results are important for development of design code for FRP structures in Europe. Currently, there is no design code for all FRP structures. FRP is less energy intensive to produce compared with traditional materials, such as concrete and steel. Research and development in FRP will help UK meets its carbon neutral target by 2050.
