A system and method of manufacture providing reinforced structurally functional load-bearing members, including but not limited to using thermoplastic materials, such as High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), reinforced such as with an aluminum alloy or carbon fiber core element. Among its possible uses, the present invention has application for provision of structural support members, such as an illustrative I-joist product having a vertical center member preferably comprising HDPE, and top and bottom flanges having structurally meaningful reinforcement. The center member and flanges preferably comprising HDPE provides a relatively hard, durable, substantially weather-resistant structure.

La présente invention a trait à un système et un procédé de fabrication d'organes renforcés porteurs de charge à fonction structurelle, comprenant mais de manière non limitative des matériaux thermoplastiques, tels que le polyéthylène haute densité (PEHD), renforcés par exemple avec un élément d'âme en alliage d'aluminium ou en fibres de carbone. Parmi les utilisations possibles, la présente invention trouve son application dans la fourniture d'organes de support structurels, tel que par exemple un produit de poutrelle en I comprenant un membre central vertical comportant de préférence du PEHD, et des ailes supérieure et inférieure présentant un renfort d'importance structurelle. Le membre central et les ailes comportant de préférence du PEHD fournissent une structure relativement dure, durable et sensiblement résistante aux intempéries.
