INTRODUCTION
![Page 3: Applications of Advanced Composite Materials in Construction](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070520/58f0e4781a28ab66728b457d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composite materials are being used predominately by military and aerospace industries. However, the growing use of advance composite materials in civil construction warrant a special mention.
