Advantages of FRP sound barrier in winter
With the increasing awareness of environmental protection, more and more cities are adopting sound barriers to reduce the impact of traffic noise on surrounding residents. In winter, due to the low temperature, the traditional metal sound barrier is susceptible to deformation, damage and other problems due to low temperature, so the application advantages of FRP sound barrier in winter are more obvious.
First, the low temperature resistance is good.
FRP is a composite material that is composed of fiberglass and resin. Because glass fiber has good cold resistance, FRP sound barrier can maintain good performance in low temperature environment. In contrast, metal acoustic barriers are prone to deformation and cracking in low temperature environments, which affects their use effect.
Second, it is not easy to accumulate snow.
In winter, due to the low temperature, the metal sound barrier is prone to snow accumulation problems, which not only affects its aesthetics, but also has a certain impact on its use effect. The FRP sound barrier can avoid this problem due to its smooth surface and not easy to accumulate snow.
3. Easy to install.
The installation of FRP sound barriers is relatively simple and does not require complex processes and equipment. When installed in winter, the concrete sets slowly due to the low temperature, and it takes a certain amount of time to wait for the concrete to set. The installation of FRP sound barriers can be completed in a shorter period of time, without waiting for the concrete to set, thus shortening the construction period.
Fourth, easy maintenance.
The maintenance of FRP sound barrier is relatively convenient. During winter maintenance, snow and debris need to be cleared regularly to ensure its effectiveness. Due to the smooth surface of the FRP sound barrier and the characteristics of not easy to accumulate snow, the difficulty and frequency of maintenance can be reduced.
To sum up, the application advantages of FRP sound barriers in winter are more obvious. It has the characteristics of good low temperature resistance, not easy to accumulate snow, easy installation and easy maintenance, etc., which can better meet the needs of traffic noise control in winter.
