Bridge Structures with GFRP Composite Deck

Abstract

In this paper, author's first part of research of GFRP bridge deck (using ASSET fiber line composite modular system) took part at AGH University of Science and Technology Laboratory of Glass Technology and Amorphous Coatings Department. The analysis consisted spectrometer analysis of chemical constitution of glass fiber, identification of material according to Fourier spectroscopy, electronic scan microscopy (SEM/EDAX) and DTA analysis. The modal FEM analysis of chosen footbridge with light GFRP deck has been presented in the paper. Keywords GFRP Bridge Deck by Material Analysis, Modal Analysis of Footbridge Composite Deck
