NEWS STORY

Building smarter, faster, and more cost-effective pedestrian infrastructure

Pedestrian boardwalks and bridges are essential for connecting communities, protecting sensitive environments, and opening up previously inaccessible areas. Yet traditional construction methods often struggle to deliver these structures efficiently.

Modularised design combined with advanced materials like FRP is changing the game.

NEWS STORY

Optimised FRP connection design makes infrastructure projects faster and easier to build 

Crush blocks are essential in FRP connection design, but are often used by default rather than necessity, adding cost, slowing installation and introducing unnecessary complexity without improving performance. 

As FRP becomes increasingly popular and demands deeper design understanding, the focus is shifting toward smarter connection selection and design optimisation that streamlines decision-making and delivers simpler, faster and more effective solutions.

Blooming in Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) structural profiles: Causes, consequences and how to prevent it

One of the most common and most misunderstood quality issues affecting FRP structural profiles is blooming. Often dismissed as a cosmetic defect, blooming can in fact be a visible symptom of deeper material formulation and manufacturing deficiencies that compromise long-term durability, structural performance and whole-of-life value.
