Strengthening Concrete and Steel Bridges Using FRPs

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthening has become a common technique used by many State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) around the country to address deficiencies with bridge structures. Carbon fiber strengthening systems are routinely used to strengthen pier caps, pier columns, concrete girders, impact damaged girders, and now steel structures. The paper will introduce the audience to the materials and the unique characteristics that make them so prized for repair and strengthening applications in civil infrastructure applications. Their use in bridge projects will be highlighted.
