SWIFT Contract Number 140046

Project Name Assessment of Bridge Decks with Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer Reinforcement

Project Number (if applicable) 1003320W04

Summarize purpose of the contract, including why it was necessary: MnDOT is constructing a pair of side-by-side bridges on TH 169, one with GFRP deck reinforcement and the other with
conventional epoxy coated steel reinforcement. Because these two bridges will be exposed to the same environmental
conditions, will experience very similar traffic, and will be constructed within the same timeframe, a unique opportunity exists
to identify and evaluate differences in performance between them.
This work was best suited for an Iowa State to complete due to their experience and expertise.
