ABSTRACT:
A trash rack for filtering large volumes of intake water generally of the type available to power-generating facilities. The trash rack includes reinforcing rods fabricated of non-metallic materials in a pultrusion fabrication process. The pultruded reinforcing rods are substantially lighter than prior steel reinforcing rods. The pultruded rods are flexible enough to give under impact and high-loading without fracture or permanent distortion, yet are strong enough to withstand the type of loading commonly experienced by such large-volume trash racks.
