Please note that this is a scanned copy of a paper originally published in 1999, so the text is not as clear as in documents created as pdf files.

This Digest deals with various aspects of polymer composites from the point of view of the properties of the materials and the architectural uses to which they are put, the design of the composites, the in-service properties of the materials and the construction and erection of the components. It primarily discusses glass-reinforced plastics but also highlights uses and potential uses of other polymer composite systems.

It includes some photographs of buildings where GRP has been used as cladding. Mondial House on the River Thames was a notable example.
