Through-thickness performance of adhesive connections between FRP bridge decks and steel main girders

FRP bridge decks offer several advantages compared with conventional concrete bridge decks, particularly their much lower weight, but also their resistance against corrosion as well as easier installation and maintenance. The poorly conceived methods avail ...

Through-thickness performance of adhesive joints between FRP bridge decks and steel girders

Thomas Keller, Martin Schollmayer

The through-thickness performance of adhesive joints between pultruded FRP bridge decks and steel girders was investigated experimentally and numerically. Through- thickness tensile stresses occur due to uplift forces caused by the load-bearing behavior of ...

Modeling of through-thickness stress state in adhesive joints connecting pultruded FRP bridge decks and steel girders

Thomas Keller, Martin Schollmayer

The through-thickness performance of adhesive joints connecting pultruded FRP bridge decks and steel girders subjected to loading in the transverse bridge direction was investigated. Deck-to-girder adhesive joints can be assumed as being loaded by uplift f ...

In-plane tensile performance of a cellular FRP bridge deck acting as top chord of continuous bridge girders

Thomas Keller, Martin Schollmayer

The in-plane tensile performance of a pultruded FRP bridge deck system was examined with regard to the use of the deck as the compositely acting top chord of hybrid bridge main girders in negative moment regions. The deck properties determined on the syste ...
