Composite reinforcement is non-metallic reinforcement made from glass, basalt, aramid, or carbon fibers impregnated with polymer. Composite reinforcement offers several advantages such as high specific strength, corrosion resistance, and low thermal conductivity. Composite reinforcement has the same coefficient of thermal expansion as concrete, which helps prevent concrete from cracking when the temperature changes. Disadvantages of composite reinforcement include low stiffness, brittleness, low resistance to high temperatures, and the harmful dust produced when cutting the rods.
