Transportation Structures Council A Powerful Technology for Infrastructure Renewal
ACMA's Transportation Structure Council (TSC) invites you to learn more about FRP composites, a powerful technology for sustainable infrastructure renewal. FRP composites provide innovative solutions to today’s infrastructure problems with materials that are high strength yet lightweight, allowing for modular assembly, easy transportation and rapid installation.

What does that mean? Faster repairs and installations mean fewer days of detours and road closings, reduced crew size and smaller construction equipment requirements.
FRP composites are versatile. This material can be formulated to be resistant to most every corrosive environment known to man, including de-icing salts. It is naturally resistant to environmental factors such as extreme weather, freeze-thaw cycles and other conditions that wreak havoc on traditional materials. Whether used as a protective barrier to strengthen traditional materials on an existing structure or to build a new one, FRP composites provide cost-effective solutions for long-term sustainability for today’s infrastructure for future generations.
