The Tyfo S Tensioned Column Strengthening System incorporates high strength composite fibers and epoxy resin to strengthen concrete columns especially, for seismic retrofit projects. The manufacturer, R.J. Watson, Inc. explains that its product is economical and easy to install. The objective of this research project is to evaluate the performance, durability and cost effectiveness of using the Tyfo S Column Strengthening System. A four-span Composite Steel I-Beam and multi-Girder Bridge in Lackawanna County on SR 0084, was selected as a test site for seismic retrofit. The site was constructed in August of 1993 and has performed satisfactory with no deterioration noticeable after the initial three years. This evaluation will continue to evaluate the performance, durability and cost effectiveness of the Tyfo S System for at least five years or until a seismic event occurs.
