METHOD AND PLANT FOR PRODUCING A FIBERGLASS PROFILE TO BE USED AS REINFORCING ELEMENT FOR STRENGTHENING AN EXCAVATION WALL

摘要

The present invention falls within the scope of the production of reinforcing elements for strengthening the excavation face of a tunnel. More precisely, the present invention relates to a fiberglass profile and to a method for producing this profile. The profile according to the invention comprises an axially extending body formed by glass fibers anchored in a polymer resin through a polymerization process. The outer surface of this profile has a corrugated trend with respect to an axial cross-sectional plane of the profile. This corrugated trend is defined by a different degree of compression of the outermost glass fibers of the profile.
