Draw up a proposal for bonded joints between FRP pavement slabs and steel beams.
Analytical and numerical modelling, laboratory experiments.

Results
With regard to construction and application has been found that the methods used for the test vehicle cannot be transferred unchanged to the practice and require additional development steps. Regarding to concept proposal for temporary bridges has been found that the original idea - to develop a reusable bridge system - does not meet the needs.
The results of the project have been circulated in ten scientific publications. From the project further resulted the published ASTRA report.
It is planned to implement the results in a temporary bridge in order to gain further insights.
