Wenchuan Post-earthquake Reconstruction by Utilizing Composite Tubular Construction and FRP Retrofitting Technology

摘要

This paper presents two possible construction methods that could be adopted in the Wenchuan post-earthquake reconstruction.One is the composite tubular construction and the other is FRP(Fibre Reinforced Polymer) retrofitting technology.The background of these two methods,the existing research and relevance to Whenchuan post-earthquake reconstruction are described.
