Zusammenfassung:A pultruded profile is provided that has fiber reinforcements longitudinally extending parallel relative to each other along the length of the pultruded profile. A tracer element is disposed longitudinally along one of fiber reinforcements. A resin is disposed over the fiber reinforcements and the tracer element to form a consistent cross-sectional shape continuously along a length of the pultruded profile. The tracer element is identifiable at a cut end of the pultruded profile to provide an indication of a location of the corresponding fiber reinforcement of the plurality of fiber reinforcements in the pultruded profile.
