Composite reinforcement for "bladed-glued" beams. Fiber Technologies(US) and the Wood Science and Technology Institute(Bedford, Canada), have developed FIRP, a composite made of high tenacity carbon fibre/aramid yarns thermoplastic or thermohardening matrix. The product is meant for wood reinforcement and for wood base composites, particularly for "bladed-glued" beams(glulam beams). A low ratio reinforcement percentage/beam section yields considerable mechanical advantages. 1, record 1, English, - FIRP%C2%AE

Renfort composite pour poutres en lamellé-collé. Le FIRP est un composite hybride fibres à haute ténacité carbone/fils aramide et matrice thermoplastique ou thermodurcissable. Il a été développé par Fiber Technologies Inc. (États-Unis), et le Wood Science and Technology Institute de Bedford (Canada), pour le renfort du bois et des composites à base de bois, en particulier les poutres de charpente à base de lamellé-collé (glulam beams). Un faible pourcentage de renfort par rapport à la section de poutre produit des gains mécaniques considérables. 1, record 1, French, - FIRP%C2%AE
