Abstract |
A concept of Modular GFRP(Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer) deck panel was proposed for bridge decks. The modular GFRP bridge deck system is comprised of main unit module and connector unit module with GFRP flanges and web. Its structural performance under static loading was evaluated and compared with the LUSAS finite element predictions. It was found that the presented GFRP modular panel was very efficient for use in bridges. The failure mode of the proposed GFRP deck was similar when compared with that of commercial other GFRP decks developed.
