Finite element method simulation was also carried out. The results of experimental and numerical simulation show that the deformation of polyurea每woven fiberglass mesh composite reinforcing layer is smaller than that of pure polyurea reinforcing layer, and the overall deformation of steel plate reinforced by polyurea每woven fiberglass mesh composite is minimal among all the three specimens. With the same polyurea consumption in reinforcing layer, the mass of the 3.5-mm-thick polyurea每woven fiberglass mesh composite每reinforced steel plate is only 2.92% larger than that of the 3.2-mm-thick pure polyurea每reinforced steel plate, but it can reduce the residual displacement of steel plate center by additional 13.03%.
