Designed for load-bearing applications where high strength and stiffness are critical, often combine different types of reinforcements to achieve specific mechanical properties
Characterized by their high length-to-diameter ratio, which gives them unique mechanical properties such as high tensile strength, flexibility, and elasticity
A composite material made up of several components, the main constituents include aggregates (such as gravel, sand, or crushed stone), cement (commonly Portland cement), water, and sometimes supplementary materials
A class of advanced materials that utilize fibers as the primary reinforcement within a matrix, find applications in aerospace for lightweight and high-strength components like aircraft wings
Fiberglass is a durable material that contains small pieces of glass, glass fibers can be manufactured from a variety of glass types depending on their intended application
Artificial fibers designed to be extremely strong, particularly when tugged, known for their tremendous strength, used in high-end products that require both lightweight and extreme durability
