Flexural Testing of Fiber Reinforced Polymer-Concrete Composite Bridge Superstructure Yanlei Wang1, a, Qingduo Hao2 and Jinping Ou1, 2 1 School of Civil and Hydraulic Engineering, Dalian University of Technology, Dalian 116024, China 2 School of Civil Engineering, Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin 150090, China a wangyanlei2008@gmail.com Keywords: fiber reinforced polymer; concrete; bridge superstructure; composite structure Abstract.
As one of the solutions to this problem, structural applications of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have recently been attractive in the civil engineering community due to their superior material properties such as high corrosion resistance, high specific strength, and high specific stiffness.
In terms of initial costs, FRP composites are still too expensive to compete with other conventional materials used in civil engineering applications.
The advantages of this concept include: (1) corrosion resistance for steel-free design; (2) initial costs reduction due to the effective use of concrete; (3) lightweight; (4) reduction of local deformation under concentrated loads that is found to be a problem in all-composite bridge; (5) significant understanding of the bridge behaviour can be obtained by testing of individual beams; (6) the concept is well understood by bridge engineers.
