AbstractThe aim of the research is design and analysis of new bridge deck panel made of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP). Use of GFRP in construction is rapidly growing in last few years. The reason for use GFRP is its low self weight in compare of strength and high resistance against weather influenced degradation resulting in long life. Using GFRP for the construction of the bridge deck leads to lightweight construction that can pass the required wheel load. Lightweight design is appreciated for temporary bridge which is expected to be transported and assembled often on places of current need. Long durability and resistance against weather degradation also reduces maintenance costs of bridge deck. Design of deck panel will be done on the base of loading experiments and FEM analysis. The main use of GFRP bridge deck panel is for temporary bridge but it is possible to extend its use on permanent or movable bridges.
