Overview
Background & policy context:
For the FRP bridge deck system ASSET, the shear and compression stiffness as well as the shear and compression resistance in the deck plane will be investigated. These parameters will allow for the dimensioning and construction of two adhesively bonded composite girders with 7.50 m span. The girders will be subjected to static and fatigue experiments.
Objectives:
The project AGB2002/025 represents an extension of project AGB2001/479. The test procedure for FRP bridge decks as well as the dimensioning method for adhesively bonded composite girders, both developed in project AGB2001/479, are beeing verified by means of a second FRP bridge deck system (Asset system).
Methodology:
Analytical and numerical modeling, laboratory experiments.
