Sinossi

This book uses a design-based approach to guide managers, designers and students through the fundamental aspects of designing with fibre-reinforced plastics. Starting with the brief, and moving through the various design stages to manufacture and testing, initial chapters show how fibre-reinforced plastics differ from other materials and how these aspects need to be considered in the design process. The most recent design standard, BS 7000, provides the frame of reference for the design stages. Further chapters cover the increasingly important areas of codes and standards, and the effects of these regulations on safety, testing, product liability and structural design, with particular reference to the Single European Market. Selected case studies highlight the main points covered and illustrate the advantages of using such materials.
