3 Presentation Overview Reasons for Considering FRP Long-term Durability: Deterioration Mechanisms Quality of FRP for Civil Infrastructure Review of NDE for FRP Beams and Decks Health Monitoring: An Alternative Approach Virginia Tech NDEDL Va FRP Showcase 3
4 Reasons for Considering FRP Wide Spread Deterioration of Bridge Structures and Decks Bridge Beams- light weight offers construction advantage/ corrosion resistance Bridge Decks- light weight alternative to concrete for structures in jeopardy of reduced load rating Rapid Replacement in High Traffic Areas Virginia Tech NDEDL Va FRP Showcase 4
5 Long-term Durability: Deterioration Mechanisms Polymer matrix cracking Glass and Carbon fiber breakage Voids Planar separations/delaminations Effects of environment: moisture, UV, temperature [30-50 years] Virginia Tech NDEDL Va FRP Showcase 5
6 High Performance FRP Low void content Good fiber alignment Good fiber distribution Virginia Tech NDEDL Va FRP Showcase 6
7 Quality of FRP for Civil Infrastructure Large void content Fiber layer waviness Resin rich and resin starved areas Virginia Tech NDEDL Va FRP Showcase 7
8 Review of NDE of FRP Beams and Decks Ultrasonic C-scanning: Forest vs trees Infrared Thermal Imaging Prefabrication screening Field testing: access and appropriate gradient Determining critical flaws Simulating effects of long term environmental exposure Strengthening: FRP vs FRP-concrete bond vs concrete deterioration Virginia Tech NDEDL Va FRP Showcase 8
