Composite Solutions Inc. Technology Used in Seismic Retrofit of Telecommunications Facility; Carbon Fiber Composite Offers Affordable Solution.Business Editors SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 2, 2002 Composite Solutions Inc. (CSI CSI Crime Scene Investigator CSI CompuServe, Inc. CSI Commodity Systems, Inc. CSI Commodity Systems Inc. (Boca Raton, FL) CSI Crime Scene Investigation (CBS TV show) CSI Christian Schools International ) (OTCBB OTCBB See OTC Bulletin Board (OTCBB). :KIPS) announced today that its carbon overlay system is being used by a major telecommunications company See telecom company. for the seismic retrofit of shear walls and columns in a key switching complex. The overlay is a carbon-fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP CFRP Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic CFRP carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer CFRP Conceptual Framework for Reuse Processes CFRP Central Florida Research Park CFRP Consolidated Fuel Reprocessing Program CFRP Chehalis Fisheries Restoration Program ) sheet which is applied like "wallpaper" to increase the ductility ductility, ability of a metal to plastically deform without breaking or fracturing, with the cohesion between the molecules remaining sufficient to hold them together (see adhesion and cohesion). Ductility is important in wire drawing and sheet stamping. and/or strength of structural elements Structural elements are used in structural analysis to simplify the structure which is to be analysed. Structural elements can be linear, surfaces or volumes. Linear elements:
