Abstract

This paper presents an overview of the application of fibre‐reinforced polymers (FRP) for repairing corrosion‐damaged structures by external wrapping. The rationale, design and durability for such repairs are addressed and significant research findings highlighted. Several field applications are described and new and innovative practices identified. Recommendations are made to improve future performance. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
