Abstrakt: | The paper includes selected aspects of the study to elaborate architectural, material and construction design of pedestrian footbridge spans, made of composite materials. The considered footbridge will be a shell sandwich type structure. The cooperation of PET foam core with outer lining surfaces will be crucial for its load bearing capacity. The paper is aimed to experimental investigation of sandwich beams subjected to bending tests. The experiments were concentrated on effect of foam core density and its influence on the obtained results, stiffness and failure modes. The test samples were made of three different foam density cores and were subjected to four-point and three-point bending tests. |
