REINFORCING MATERIAL

摘要

A material for reinforcing a panel comprises a strip of expandable material which has not yet expanded, and a sheet of resin material which has not yet hardened. The expandable material is centered onto a central portion of the resin material so that the edges of the resin material are exposed and can be bonded to the panel. One surface of the expandable material is exposed to contact the panel. The exposed surface of the expandable material is flush with the surface of the edges of the resin material.
