  • Acoustic Emission Monitoring and Analysis of Glass Fiber-Reinforced Composite Bridge Decks

    Journal of Bridge Engineering, ASCE

    This paper presents the performance results, based on acoustic emission (AE), of six full-scale glass FRP bridge deck panels with nominal cross-sectional depths varying from 152 mm (6 in.) to 800 mm (30 in.). The objective was to develop for use during in-service field inspections an AE monitoring strategy that will determine the structural performance of the deck. As such, the characterization of damage, e.g., fiber breakage, matrix cracking, and delamination, was part of the investigated…

    This paper presents the performance results, based on acoustic emission (AE), of six full-scale glass FRP bridge deck panels with nominal cross-sectional depths varying from 152 mm (6 in.) to 800 mm (30 in.). The objective was to develop for use during in-service field inspections an AE monitoring strategy that will determine the structural performance of the deck. As such, the characterization of damage, e.g., fiber breakage, matrix cracking, and delamination, was part of the investigated criteria and the contributing factors for identification of a monitoring strategy.
