Abstract
The paper includes selected aspects of the study to elaborate architectural, material and construction design of pedestrian footbridge spans made of composite materials. The considered footbridge is a sandwich-type shell structure. The cooperation of PET foam core with outer lining surfaces is crucial for its load bearing capacity. The paper is aimed to experimental investigation of sandwich beams subjected to bending loading. The experiments were concentrated on the effect of the foam core density and its influence on obtained results of stiffness and failure modes. The test samples were made of three different foam density cores and were subjected to four-point and three-point bending tests.
