ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT: The poor durability of conventional repairs has led to increased interest in the application of fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) for repairing corroded concrete structures. Over the past decade, several highway agencies in Canada and US have conducted demonstration projects to evaluate the application of FRP for repairing corrosion damage. In most instances, repairs were limited to bridge elements that had corroded due to salt water runoff from faulty expansion joints or salt spray from passing vehicular traffic. These FRP repairs have held up well and show little sign of deterioration.
