Abstract:
In the literature survey of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) grid reinforced concrete structures, a limited number of studies were found on FRP grid stiffened concrete slabs in bridge deck applications and other non-structural applications in buildings. No open publications were found that focused on link-slab for deck joint applications. In the material and specimen tests, the focus was on manufacturing and testing the structural behavior and physical properties of two types of FRP grid reinforced concrete slabs, control concrete slabs, and FRP slabs. Finally, the focus was on evaluating the structural behavior of the link-slab simulating the actual structural conditions through full-scale testing and numerical simulation using finite element analysis. This study lays a solid basis for field-level applications of FRP grid reinforced concrete link-slab for jointless bridge deck design.
