In today’s digitally interconnected world, data centers play an essential role in society and the global economy. Data centers have unique design needs to ensure security, reliability, efficiency, scalability, and sustainability. This course focuses on the exterior data center design requirements and examines how fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) products contribute to more efficient facility construction, seamless maintenance, and long-term operational savings.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Summarize the purpose and types of data centers and the role of key stakeholders who ensure data centers perform safely, efficiently, and reliably through planning, construction, and use.
  • Recall data center construction phases, design considerations, and how FRP helps architects, engineers, and construction professionals address data center challenges, such as scalability, construction speed and cost, safety, and sustainability.
  • Discuss the benefits of FRP, including durability, low maintenance, high strength-to-weight ratio, electrical and thermal nonconductivity, and resistance to corrosion, slips, impact, fire, UV damage, and fatigue.
  • Explain how FRP contributes to design and build requirements and utilize case studies to demonstrate how FRP ensures safety and durability in data centers.
