Experimental tests and numerical simulations of full scale composite sandwich segment of a foot- and cycle- bridge

Abstract

In the paper experimental tests and numerical simulations of a full cross-section segment of ultimately designed foot-and cycle-bridge are presented. The experimental tests were conducted on element with length reduced to 3 m and unchanged (target) cross-section dimensions. The external skin of structure is GFRP laminate while internal core is PET foam. Several quasi-static tests were performed using hydraulic cylinder to generate vertical loads, and using specially designed system of rods to generate horizontal loads applied to the structure transversally and longitudinally. Results of the numerical simulations conducted in the FEM environment are shown and serve as the basis for the design process of target foot-and cycle- bridge.
