Glass fiber reinforced gypsum board (GFRG) is a construction panel product made from calcined gypsum, plaster. Produced under strictly controlled conditions, the panels are 124 mm thick, 12 m long and 3 m high, contain cavities and can be unfilled, partially filled or fully filled with reinforced concrete, depending on structural requirements. Experiments and studies in Australia, China and India have shown that GFRG panels, properly filled with plain reinforced concrete, have considerable strength and can be used not only as load-bearing elements but also as shear walls, capable of resisting lateral loads caused by earthquakes and wind.GFRG panels can also be used as infill (non-load-bearing) in combination with columns and beams of RCC frames (conventional frame construction for multi-story buildings). There is no restriction on the number of storeys, and the micro-beams and RCC mortar (acting on T-beams) can be used as floor/roof slabs.
GFRG panel possesses high flexural strength, shearing strength, compressive strength, and flexibility. It has a very high level of resistance to fire, water, heat, corrosion, rot, and termites. Concrete filled with vertical reinforcement rods improves it’s vertical and lateral load capacities. GFRG made buildings are resistant to fire, earthquakes, and cyclones.
