This project aims at taking the first critical steps to innovatively introduce an exceptionally cost-effective composite product, WEAV3D composite lattice, to the construction industry. WEAV3D lattice is composed of fiber reinforced thermoplastic tapes, which have been woven and bonded into a lattice structure using an innovative lattice forming process. The proposed research will experimentally examine the bond characteristics of WEAV3D composite lattice embedded in concrete samples. Innovative changes to the manufacturing process to reach acceptable bond characteristics will be examined. The research will result in a novel WEAV3D product, which is suitable for the construction industry. The use of WEAV3D lattice in the construction industry will eliminate the durability problem associated with corrosion of steel reinforcing bars, which is a major economic problem for Canadian structures. Their lightweight, as compared to steel bars, will also reduce the construction time, and eliminate construction risks associated with handling of steel reinforcing bars. WEAV3D lattice will also help addressing climate change challenges by reducing the reliance on steel reinforcing bars, which impact the environment due to the damaging air emissions, wastewater contaminants, and hazardous wastes released during their manufacturing process.

该项目旨在迈出关键的第一步，创新性地将一种极具成本效益的复合材料产品WEAV3D复合材料网格引入建筑行业。WEAV3D晶格由纤维增强热塑性胶带组成，这些胶带使用创新的晶格成型工艺编织并粘合成晶格结构。 该研究将通过实验研究嵌入混凝土样品中的WEAV 3D复合网格的粘结特性。将检查制造工艺的创新变更，以达到可接受的粘合特性。该研究将产生一种新的WEAV3D产品，适用于建筑行业。在建筑行业中使用WEAV3D网格将消除与钢筋腐蚀相关的耐久性问题，这是加拿大结构的主要经济问题。与钢筋相比，它们的重量轻，也将减少施工时间，并消除与处理钢筋相关的施工风险。WEAV3D lattice还将通过减少对钢筋的依赖来帮助应对气候变化挑战，钢筋由于在制造过程中释放的有害气体排放，废水污染物和危险废物而影响环境。
