7 Foreword It was a real pleasure for me to find out about the volume New Composite Materials: Selection, Design, and Application authored by Domenico Brigante, a clear demonstration that the education given to our students during their university years is not always neglected nor forgotten. In the case of Dr. Brigante, the publishing of this book states the relevance and importance of spreading technical and scientific knowledge in the pursuit of a kind of continuity over time in the development of positive achievements, as has happened for composite materials, thus leading to an improvement in our everyday social and technical lives. This book deals precisely with the use of composites in civil construction and architecture, a field involving each and every one of us that is now, after many years of hesitation and doubts, finally interested in the huge potential represented by composites. Extremely relevant and diverse from other minor technical publications dealing with building issues, this volume focuses extensively on the description of the characteristics of the techniques employed for buildings or for the structural restoration of specific monuments or simple common constructions. This is actually a prevailing aspect in the use of composite materials, diverse from the use of traditional materials, since the final properties of the products or applications strongly depend on the same way that different materials are applied that should be accurately designed and distributed following the most effective procedures which designers can only choose if they have a deep and accurate knowledge of the techniques required. This is true for the use of both composites on wooden or steel and concrete structures whose different existing possibilities are carefully detailed in this volume. The examples and descriptions of inspection and monitoring procedures crown the volume, making it an effective tool for designers and for final users as well.

15 Introduction Over the last several years, the scientific interest towards innovative fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) applications for structural reinforcement on one side and the peculiarity of the extremely diversified Italian architectural heritage on the other directed the attention of many researchers to the fields of structural mechanics, construction, structural reinforcement, and seismic engineering. Several scientific programs have resulted from this, funded by the most important research centers in the world. Worth mentioning are, for instance, the programming regulations drafted and issued on specific journals by the fib Task Group 9.3, the European founding committee in 1998, or the official journals of the American Concrete Institute (ACI), whose aim is to provide new guidelines for the design and construction of FRP concrete structures. A further contribution on the topic comes from the European Committee for Standardization that published the new regulations of design and strengthening with FRP in the Eurocode 8 Design of structures for earthquake resistance Part 3 Assessment and retrofitting of buildings, Draft N 7, January In Italy, the decree nr May 2005, concerning the technical regulations for the design, evaluation, and seismic adjustment of buildings, introduces the use of FRP for the seismic strengthening of reinforced concrete (r.c.) members and specifically refers to the instructions of CNR-DT 200/2004 for the safety assessments. This volume deals with several topics strictly linked to the most up-to-date applications of composite materials in civil engineering, and industrial and historical or monumental buildings. This timely volume presents a range of critical topics on the use of composite materials in civil engineering; industrial, commercial, and residential structures; and historic buildings. Structural strengthening techniques based on composite materials represent a practice employed internationally and have become an important component in the restoration of buildings impacted by natural hazards and other destructive forces. New Composite Materials: Selection, Design, and Application stands as a highly relevant and diverse effort, distinct from other technical publications dealing with xv

16 xvi Introduction buildings issues. The book focuses extensively on the characterization of techniques employed for structural restoration and examines in detail an assortment of materials such as concrete, wood, masonry, and steel. This book Provides engineers and architects with a lucid explanation of how to easily design an innovative system of structural reinforcement with composite materials Presents details for readers to readily assess the feasibility of reinforcement applications Includes a section for construction managers written to facilitate the installation of composite structural reinforcement materials with maximum efficiency and cost benefit Features many examples of applications and construction details to help engineers and architects realize their projects Offers a comparative analysis among various international technical standards The structural strengthening techniques making use of composite materials, also known as FRP, currently represent a sound reality in national and international scenarios, and have become a constituent part of the restoration works of buildings impacted by earthquakes that have hit many countries. Extremely relevant and diverse from other minor technical publications dealing with buildings issues, this volume extensively focuses on the description of the characteristics of the techniques employed for buildings or for the structural restoration of specific monuments or simple common constructions. Specific aspects of the implementation of r.c. structures, wood, masonry, and steel are extensively detailed both in terms of the technical design and of the execution stages, as well as the subsequent mechanical performances of the systems obtained. This book provides a useful tool that can be applied directly to different kinds of technical documents. The examples and descriptions of inspection and monitoring procedures crown the volume, making it an effective support for designers and for final users as well. The work results in a fundamental practical handbook for any engineer, designer, architect, or any other technician who is willing to handle this innovative technique of structural strengthening.
