A Non-Metallic Alternative to Structural Steel

Therefore, I have some problems with using FRP as structural members. Second, plastics are made from oil; a large market in FRP material would surely affect the distribution of the world's available oil. Of course, if we could stop using oil for energy production (substitute fast nuclear in my opinion,) there would be more available for FRP.

Concrete, Steel, or Wood: Searching for Zero-Net-Carbon

Jan 15,  · People love to hate concrete almost as much as they love using it. As the world’s most ubiquitous construction material, it contributes 6% to 11% of global carbon dioxide emissions. Most of those emissions come from the production of its binder, portland cement, which comprises about 10% of the concrete mix by weight, on average.
