Abstract

Now a days, glass fiber reinforced polymer(GFRP) composites became the best alternative to replace the traditional materials due to its superlative properties such as high stiffness to weight ratio, strength to weight ratio & corrosion resistance etc., the present work focuses replacement ship container wall of corrugated structure with GFRP composites. These structures are tested for flexural and bending strength. General purpose (GP) polyester resin is used as matrix and glass fabrics of orientations 0&45 are used as reinforcement to make the two ply corrugated composite& hand lay-up technique is employed.
