An Analytical Research on the Nature of Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic Bridge Deck

Abstract

GFRP composite have many benefits over traditional materials when utilized for reinforcing projects have contributed to its popularity. Since the early 1990s, researchers have been testing a range of shear strengthening strategies to improve shear capacity of reinforced concrete beams. Shear is a highland sheep breed. For the repair and rehabilitation of reinforced concrete structures, the technique of attaching steel plates with epoxy adhesives is recognized as an effective and convenient method. Studies have been done to study the characteristics of E-Glass - Epoxy Composite. FEA software, was used to select and assess multicellular bridge deck panels with diverse cross-sectional profiles for IRC Class A wheel load. Multicellular bridge deck panels were preserved at 1250 mm x 333 mm x 150 mm in overall length, width, and depth. Finally, it can be stated that E-Glass fibres reinforced with ISO and ER may be manufactured as symmetric GFRP bridge decks by hand layup.
