Abstract:

Since 1996, over 30 Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composite bridges have been installed

in the United States. Bridge locations are in Kansas, Missouri, New York, Iowa, Colorado, West

Virginia, Ohio, California, Idaho, Washington, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Maryland, Oregon, North

Carolina and South Carolina.

Compared to traditional steel and concrete bridge structures, the FRP panel shows several

significant advantages: reduced weight, higher strength, better corrosion resistance and quicker

installation. However, FRP materials exhibit different physical properties. As such, a composite

bridge would demonstrate different deformation and failure patterns than a traditional bridge.

During the past years, much experimental research has been conducted to investigate FRP bridge

deck performance. Most experiments divide into two types: 1) static and fatigue tests in the

laboratory and 2) real traffic load tests in the field. These experimental results, as well as FEM

analytical results, have served as baseline data for FRP bridge deck design.
