Structural Testing

• FRP building proof-of-design for 140 mph wind load
• Structural product testing
  • Tanks
  • Manholes
• Conducted eight full-scale buckling tests on 10,000 gallon buried tanks with camera inside to verify local buckling and global buckling, developed new design methods for FRP USTs
• Conducted full scale float out test for 12,000 gallon UST for confirmation of buoyancy calculation method
• Conducted or witnessed Man Hole tests for conformance with ASTM D3753 for FRP Man Holes
• Provide guidance to manufacturers for testing new and existing products
