Abstract: The light weight and high deformability of bridges made with pultruded FRP (fiber-reinforced polymer) materials make them very promising, but, at the same time, vulnerable to dynamic loadings. As a consequence, the vibration serviceability limit… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cscm.2018.02.005
Abstract: Abstract In this paper, the all-FRP composite pedestrian bridge of Taijiang National Park was investigated for its flexural-torsional behaviour under half-surface loading conditions. The bridge, which consists of four GFRP I-girders separated by three GFRP… read more here.
