FRP basically consists of fiberglass and thermosetting resins.Fiberglass reinforced pipes (FRP) are used in trenchless installation of pipelines because it is lightweight, temperature resistant, strong, and highly resistant to chemicals and corrosion. These pipes are easy to install and rarely need repair because they are low maintenance. In trenchless methods such as direct pipe, and microtunneling, FRP pipes are used because the jacking pressure required to drive the pipe is significantly reduced owing to its smooth outer surface FRP pipes are manufactured by a winding process that reinforces thermosetting epoxy resins with continuous glass filaments. As the resins cure they undergo an irreversible chemical reaction giving it superior resistance to temperature variation, while the glass fibers give it superior mechanical strength.
