| Abstract: |
Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) materials have the advantages of a high strength/weight ratio, corrosion resistance. Bridge construction with CFRP cable rather than steel cables has a wider span, better load capacity, and longer life span. Due to the anisotropy of the CFRP materials, achieving effective anchorage for CFRP cables is challenging. To address this problem, a self- anchored integrated CFRP cable has been proposed. Recently, the novel cable was adopted in a truss bridge in Shanghai. The utilization of the novel cable contributed to rapid construction and ensure structure safety, which is quite attractive for future bridge construction. |
