Durability Evaluation of Florida's Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Composite Reinforcement for Concrete Structures

This research proposes to conduct a detailed statewide survey of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composite repairs along with their performance and current state based on inspection reports and visual examination. In addition, the salvaged girders will be tested to capacity and then autopsied to determine the extent of corrosion damage.
