What Is The Hand Lay-Up Process?

What Is The Hand Lay-Up Process?

1.1. What Is The Hand Lay-Up Process? Hand Lay-up is fabrication process of FRP products (Fiber Reinforced Plastic). The FRP is composite material of Resin and Fiberglass strand or Fiberglass Mat. It involved building up layers of chopped glass or woven glass chopped strand mat impregnated with catalyzed resin around a suitable mould. The reinforcement is then rolled for better wet-out and removing trapped air.

1.2. Steps of Hand lay-up process Hand lay-up process is an open mold process. It is a simple process to manufacturing of FRP products Preparing Mold:- We take mold and removing any dust and dirt from mold. The mold material may be plaster, wood or new fiberglass, apply soft wax, P.V.A. and buff with soft towel.
· Applying Resin:- Resin is applied on mold by the brush. The brush is move like to painting of wall.
· Lay-up of Fiberglass:- Brush is applied of resin on mold then chopped fiber glass strands spread or chopped strand mat for hand lay-up over the resin layer
· Applying Resin:- Again apply the resin layer over the glass strand layer by using brush.
· Squeeze Action:- Second layer of resin is applied then roller is move over the layers of resin-fiberglass-resin, for removing the air between in layers. This action called squeeze action. This squeeze action also used for compact the product.

· Remold :- Lastly the sheet is removing from mold for hardening of sheet, the left in air at room temperature. And remold product is final of a corrugated fiber roofing sheet.We ask that authors follow some simple guidelines. In essence, we ask you to make your paper look exactly like this document.

FIBERGLASS VAN FLOOR KIT (including fiberglass chopped strand mat)

To make, lay, or laminate your own GRP van or truck floor it couldn’t be easier, all you need is a simple GRP fibreglass roof kit and these are sold with literally everything you need including tools, so it’s just a matter of measuring up your van floor and buying the correct size kit, simple. You may get a common choice of weight (thickness) i.e. 300g (1oz) or 450g (1.5oz), and either of these is absolutely fine.
If your looking to customise your requirements and want to buy your fibreglass in non kit form you will need to think about coverage, so here are the two most common weights of CSM and what coverage you can expect…

300g CSM fiberglass chopped strand mat requires approximately 1.5 litres of resin per square metre to cover.
450g requires 2 litres of resin per square metre.

Topcoat (colour or flowcoat) coverage is about half a litre per square metre.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT WEIGHT OF CSM (CHOPPED STRAND MAT) FIBREGLASS MATTING

(Article from Fixmyroof)

You may find all sorts of suggestions from fibreglass suppliers of what weight of fibreglass CSM (CHOPPED STRAND MAT) mat to use on your roof. Some don’t say, some say 450g, some 600g or others say double laminate 300g or 450g. In the end it turns into a “mines bigger then yours” contest devoid of all logic and reason. The simple truth is there are guessing because they want the best for you but they haven’t seen your roof, it’s size, it’s shape or how well it’s constructed. Some fibreglass suppliers are just suppliers and only that, and some have a history of fibreglassing roofs and can speak from real experience. Here are my suggestions, feel free to use them, ignore them, or improve on them.

  Small roofs – small garages, porches and bays 450g ( 1.5oz)
  Small garage sized roof’s – with foot traffic or medium to large roof 600g ( 2oz )
  Large roofs – i.e. > 50m2 single 600g or possible 450g double laminate for walkways.

  Large roofs – i.e. > 100m2 double 450g laminate
