Nowadays, Fiber Reinforced Profiles (FRP) are utilized as different sections in applications such as lightweight structures, pedestrian or vehicular bridges, towers, and ground reinforcement elements. Some of the advantages of FRP profiles are light weight, high tensile strength, corrosion resistance and performance against water and moisture. Glass Fiber Reinforced Profiles (GFRP) are preferred among FRP profiles due to economic reasons. In buildings where these materials are used at high temperatures such as fire or under the influence of freezing during the winter months, the loss of strength should be known.In this study, tensile and compressive samples from GFRP box profiles measuring 74 x 74 x 4 mm produced with the pultrusion method were tested at different temperatures. Samples were tested with tensile and compressive tests at 13 different temperatures: 50, 25, 10, 0, +10, +25, +50, +75, +100, +125, +150, +175, +200 in severe cold and high temperatures under the influence of both tensile and compressive stress and losses of strength for GFRP profiles were determined.
