Frp Structural Design Manual
On setup of design for FRP, the sections you can generally get from the market are similar to steel. You can get UB, PFC, SHS ect. So for concept design you can start with these sections aka a typical steel setup(I like to use RHS stringers they generally have better Shear strength). Then slook to use some grating as treats.

I would connect the lot with stainless steel but you can use FRP connections, if so make sure you get some testing data, for the angle in this type of loading. They should be able to provide you with lots of strength data, if not don't use them. Things to keep in mind are, generally FRP has a greater tension and compression ultimate strength, 'E' is lower and shear strength is lower compared to steel.
When in doubt, just take the next small step. RE: FRP, Fiberglass Design Manual (Structural) 15 Aug 09 18:45.
