Review Study on Glass Fibre Reinforced Gypsum (GFRG) Panels
The tremendous increase in Urbanization leads to the various innovation techniques in Building Technology to improve their efficiency. As a part of this, Glass Fibre Reinforced Gypsum (GFRG) Panels are the new technique that is widely used in Australia, India, China, etc. These are panel-based building systems, which can be used as a replacement of nominal walls and slabs. This can be used as Load-Bearing structures as well as shear wall by adding reinforced cement concrete in panel cavities. In the mass housing system, GFRG Panels play a vital role in easy transportation, erection and construction of large units in the desired time period with less manpower. It is also eco-friendly, cost-effective, high resistance to heat and fire compared with traditional construction. The methodology involved mainly to analyse, discuss and recommends the GFRG panels as per the site conditions. To conclude this, conventional building construction indirectly impacts the increase of pollution in the world, as an alternative for this, we can use GFRG panels made up of industrial waste and also with the minimum usage of virgin materials during execution. Hence, it is one of the green building technologies to sustain our environment. In this review paper, general structural requirements, design and erection process of Glass Fibre Reinforced Gypsum Panels are discussed.
