Fire safety of composites in prefabricated buildings: From fibre reinforced polymer to textile reinforced concrete

Fibre reinforced composites (FRCs) have been increasingly used in the prefabricated building (PB) industry owing to its high strength-to-weight ratio, ease of application and flexibility in manufacturing. FRCs can be used in PBs for both structural and non-structural applications. The major hindrance for composite elements in PB is their fire performance. Depending on applications, there will be different requirements for FRCs on the fire...
