Lightweight Fiber Reinforced Thermoset Polymer Composite Bridge Decks

The objective of this project is to demonstrate and validate state-of-the-art and emerging innovative technology approaches for rehabilitating failed concrete bridge decks using fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composite systems. An existing roadway bridge at Redstone Arsenal having a steel girder substructure that has a reinforced concrete deck experiencing severe corrosion of the steel reinforcement will be selected for this demonstration.
