1 Composites in Infrastructure: impressions of design & calculation Rotterdam, May, 2015 ir. Jan Peeters Director R&D / co-founder FiberCore FiberCore Europe, Rotterdam peeters@fibercore-europe.com
2 Composites? Fiber reinforced plastics (FRP) Fibers glass, carbon, aramide Resins polyester, vinylester, epoxy
3 Production processes for FRP
4 Raw material comparison
5 Specific properties E/(ρ*g) Mild steel (0,5;2,75) σ/(ρ*g)
6 Carbon fibers
7 Composites: stiffness dominated designs 600 MPa Stress composite 0/90ᵒ, 75/25% Assume: sandwich with composite skins Same EI wall thickness 6,64 t UC on strength: 0,1 ; safety margin 10 Wall thickness 6,64 t 360 MPa steel Depth H Wall thickness 6,64 t Width B Assume: sandwich with steel skins Designed for strength: UC = 1 Bending stiffness EI Wall thickness t Use in bridge 34 GPa 210 GPa Depth H Wall thickness t Width B 0 0,2% 2% Strain
8 Example bridge design Assume linear elasticity Assume beam behaviour Assume three-point-bending Design for stiffness (usability limit state)
9 Max. deflection of the beam In steel: u max ql L4 EI F 2 L 2 3 EI 3 In composite: ql L4 u max EI 1 8 ql L2 GA F 2 L 2 3 EI F L GA in which EI = bending stiffness, GA = shear stiffness
10 CUR96 directive S f In which: R d and with: S = load on structure R d R.d R.k?.M?.c?.f R d = design resistance of the structure R k = characteristic resistance γ M = partial material factor η c = conversion factor γ f = load factor R k c M the design resi the characteris the partial mate the conversion the load factor
11 CUR96 directive M Rd m In which partial factors for uncertainty: γ Rd = in resistance model and geometry γ m = caused by the nature of materials and production methods used
12 CUR96 directive c ct cv ck cf In which conversion factors: η ct η cv η ck η cf = effects of temperature = effect of moisture = creep = fatigue
13 CUR96 directive Combined: S f c M R k or: S f Rd ct cv m ck cf R k
14 Example With, e.g.: γ f = load factor = 1.0 (usability limit state) γ Rd = model & geometry = 1.0 γ m = materials & production = 1.2 (RTM, post cured) η ct = effects of temperature = 1.0 (if T T g - 40 C) η cv = effect of moisture = 1.0 (mostly dry) η ck = creep = 0.8 (non crimp, 100 yrs) η cf = fatigue = 0.9 Follows: S 1.64 R k
15 Think composites
16 Composite material properties First: design the required material Step 1: the properties of the unidirectional layer Variables: Fibre properties Resin properties Fibre volume fraction
17 Composite material properties Step 2: the off-axis properties of the unidirectional layer
18 Composite material properties Step 3: stack these properties to obtain the properties of the laminate Use laminate theory rules of mixtures
19 Geometrical properties Bending stiffness EI Shear stiffness GA EI GA E i I i i G i A i i

22 Important design considerations, especially for deck structures FiberCore Europe: Do not use composite materials in infrastructure, unless these materials and structures are robust and damage tolerant
23 Crack tip in composites A B C Fibre Reinforced Plastics Inhomogenic, layered material Fibres act as crack arrestors Vulnerable to cracking between fibre layers ( interlaminar cracking or delamination )
24 A lot can and does go wrong
25 What is required for reliable use of FRP in Infra, are structures which after a serious impact load show no debonding and no cracking or delamination which may cause catastrophic failure, not directly and not after 10, 50 or even 100 years of intensive use; have been proven with certified long term tests to be damage tolerant; therefor have no potentially critical resin or adhesive dominated fracture paths; preferably are monolithic, encompassing all structural parts, enabling robust joints to, and proper cooperation with, surrounding steel and concrete structuresl have continuous reinforcing fibers which guarantee a robust connection between top skin core bottom skin..
26 There is a robust solution The only technology to comply with the requirements formulated in the previous sheets, proven and patented worldwide.

73 Important design considerations, especially for deck structures Eurocode 0 (EN-1990), Section 2.1 Basic Requirements (4)P A structure shall be designed and executed in such a way that it will not be damaged by events such as: explosion impact, and the consequences of human errors, to an extent disproportionate to the original cause.
74 Important design considerations, especially for deck structures Eurocode 0 (EN-1990), Section 2.1 Basic Requirements (5)P Potential damage shall be avoided or limited by appropriate choice of one or more of the following: avoiding, eliminating or reducing the hazards to which the structure can be subjected; selecting a structural form which has low sensitivity to the hazards considered; selecting a structural form and design that can survive adequately the accidental removal of an individual member or a limited part of the structure, or the occurrence of acceptable localized damage; avoiding as far as possible structural system that can collapse without warning; tying the structural members together.
75 Important design considerations, especially for deck structures Eurocode 0 (EN-1990), Section 2.1 Basic Requirements (6) The basic requirements should be met: by the choice of suitable materials, by appropriate design and detailing, and by specifying control procedures for design, production, execution, and use relevant to the particular project.
