Structural Evaluation of Hybrid FRP‐UHPC Bridge Girders
This chapter discusses the development of an innovative cost‐effective high‐performance hybrid bridge deck structural system that utilizes the unique properties of fiber‐reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials and the distinctive properties of ultrahigh performance concrete (UHPC). The beam section consists of a pultruded glass fiber‐reinforced polymer (GFRP) hollow box reinforced with externally bonded unidirectional steel‐reinforced polymer (SRP) or carbon fiber‐reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets on the bottom flange. The chapter presents a comparison of the experimental and analytical results for the hybrid section beams. The beams are studied under cyclic concentrated load to determine the fatigue effect on the concrete‐FRP bonding interface. The work undertaken here increases the understanding of the flexural and shear behavior of the proposed beam. The results can be used in the future to predict the behavior of similar beams.
