The mechanics of FRP-reinforced concrete involve a few critical differences from traditional reinforced concrete. FRP materials are anisotropic, meaning their mechanical properties vary depending on the direction of the force applied. Consequently, designing with FRP requires careful consideration of the orientation of the fibers. Additionally, the bond between FRP bars and concrete differs from that of steel rebar. Adhesive properties, stress transfer, and the potential for slip all differ and must be meticulously analyzed during the design phase.

Safety is a significant priority in industrial and commercial settings, and fiberglass grating offers superior slip resistance. The surface can be manufactured with textured finishes that enhance traction, reducing the risk of slips and falls. This property is particularly important in wet or oily environments, where traditional metal gratings may pose a hazard. The lightweight nature of fiberglass also allows for easier installation and maintenance, further contributing to a safer working environment.
