Fiber reinforced polymer composite deck panels are effectively used in the construction of offshore structures such as pontoons, floating docks, oil drilling platforms, ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) systems and harbor structures due to their excellent corrosion and fatigue resistance, high

Concrete bridge decks reinforced with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composite panels have recently been used where the FRP panels also serve as the permanent formwork for concrete. Comparing to their short-term behavior, their long-term performance especially under repeated traffic loads (fatigue)
FRP composites have been widely used as internal reinforcement for concrete bridge deck slabs. However, experimental researches on the behavior of such FRP-reinforced elements in general have been limited, especially those on fatigue performance. This research is designed to investigate the fatigue
