Maintenance and Inspection of Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Bridges: A Review of Methods. [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials (Basel), 2021
Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) are materials that comprise high-strength continuous fibers and resin polymer, and the resins comprise a matrix in which the fibers are embedded. As the technique of FRP production has advanced, FRPs have attained many incomparable advantages over traditional building materials such as concrete and steel, and thus they ...
