Abstrait: |
During the last two decades, ten highway bridges were built with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) components in the USA. Extensive research work and in-depth analysis were executed with the construction of each bridge to ensure both safety and longevity. Six bridges are instrumented with multiple deflection, strain, and load sensors that capture the response of the bridges under different traffic and environmental conditions. More than twelve years of field monitoring data is currently available and is being utilized in the development of national guidelines for the design and construction of highway bridges with CFRP reinforcement. |
