Abstract |
The aim of this paper is to present the state of the art in the use of FRP composites in bridge engineering with the focus on hybrid and all-composite structures. The paper will present the basic information about use of FRP in bridge deck. Composites, including the structural behavior of FRP material in place of traditional ,definition, description of the components, mechanical properties and general areas of application. Then, it will focus on modernization of construction techniques , describing manufacturing processes relevant to civil engineering applications like bridge deck systems, as well as its feasibility study in Indian market,. And it will compare the properties of FRP composites with those of traditional materials. Finite element analysis (ANSYS 19.2) is utilized to assess the overall structural behavior of the bridge under different load effects. The results show that a considerable reduction in stresses due to the light weight of the deck and composite action between FRP decks and steel girders can be obtained. |
