| description abstract | This paper discusses the development of an innovative and efficient connector to be used with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) decks supported by steel girders. A summary is provided detailing various proprietary connectors currently employed by FRP deck manufacturers. The paper then describes the development and experimental testing of a clamped shear stud-type connector. Experimental testing was conducted in two phases. The first phase consisted of individual connector testing. In this phase, several variations of the connector are tested and evaluated for strength, damage development, and overall performance. Results of this phase of testing are used to select a final connection design to be used in the second phase of testing, which consisted of testing a scale model bridge that incorporates several of the proposed connectors. The bridge is subjected to static load tests and the resulting reactions and deflections from these tests are compared with comprehensive finite element models of the system. | |
