The integration of Glass Fibre-Polymer composite (a.k.a. GFRP) deck panels in bridge infrastructure is hindered by lacking a robust connection technology. A promising bolted connection, utilising injected steel reinforced resin (iSRR) material, has demonstrated lower creep def ...
Resins are essential structural materials predominantly used in load-bearing connections such as adhesively bonded joints and resin-injected bolted connections. In an effort to improve the latter, a new injection material, Steel Reinforced Resin (SRR), has been developed, cons ...
Due to the low weight and excellent durability of composite materials, Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) decks mounted on steel superstructures are becoming increasingly common in engineering practice. Bolted joints are generally used to facilitate connections between an FRP deck ...
In response to the sustainability requirements set in the EU Commission´s “Green Deal” towards reduction of the greenhouse gas emissions, it is estimated that the structural design for deconstruction is going to contribute considerably to the sustainable development of the bui ...

connected to a steel girder superstructure are gaining more attention by combining the stiffness of steel members with good fatigue endurance and high strength to weight ratio of FRP. However, when c ...
