Pressure cycling and ultimate failure pressure testing was conducted on various pipe samples to verify the design formulas meet the specifications and are correct for use in design of field repairs. Results show that use of strain-based design methodologies for composite repair systems is suitable and effective.

Impact of exposure to a low temperature environment below -30oC (-22oF) was investigated on a carbon fiber and epoxy composite repair system that had previously been qualified to the ASME(1) PCC-21 Article 4.1 nonmetallic repair standard.
There are many companies focusing on the emerging wind generation maintenance market. As the segment matures there has been a shift to more traditional industrial access methods that provide improved cost structure, better access for workers, improved safety and higher production rates. This discussion will focus on new suspended platform configurations and methods that have been designed for the wind tower and blade access market, improving the safety, quality, productivity and profitability for the maintenance contractor.
Stress Corrosion Cracking, or SCC, is part of a group of cracks commonly known as Environmental Cracking. Additional types of cracks found in this group include corrosion fatigue and hydrogen embrittlement. It is generally known that SCC requires three factors to be present to form and continue growing. The first is a susceptible material. In the world of pipelines, carbon steel is quite susceptible to corrosion when buried but is typically protected from this threat utilizing a combination of external coatings in cathodic protection.
The increased use of high-performance fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites in aerospace, marine, alternative energy, civil, and architectural projects has presented challenges. Defects in composite parts require thorough investigation to ensure compliance with safety requirements and overall structural integrity.
This paper focuses on the advancements of FRP composites and their specific applications in structural engineering, with a particular emphasis on Premier Composite Technologies.
