Carbon fiber shells are widely used across various industries due to their unique combination of strength, lightweight properties, and durability. In the aerospace industry, carbon fiber shells are employed in the manufacture of aircraft components, such as fuselage sections and wings, enhancing fuel efficiency. The automotive industry utilizes carbon fiber shells in high-performance vehicles for body panels and interior components, improving the strength-to-weight ratio. Sports equipment, including bicycle frames and tennis rackets, also incorporates this material to meet durability and performance demands. Additionally, boat manufacturers use carbon fiber shells for hulls and decks due to their corrosion resistance and ability to withstand harsh marine environments. Carbon fiber plays a crucial role in consumer electronics, medical devices, industrial applications, and defense sectors, showcasing its versatility and advantages in various applications.
Fiberglass reinforced polymer (FRP) is a lightweight material with a high strength-to-weight ratio, making it ideal for applications in aerospace and automotive industries. It is electrically and thermally non-conductive, as well as radio frequency transparent, which is advantageous for telecommunications and electrical equipment. FRP exhibits excellent chemical resistance, making it suitable for use in wastewater treatment plants and construction environments where corrosion is a concern. Additionally, it provides effective sound insulation and offers design flexibility, allowing for complex shapes without compromising its properties. While the initial investment in FRP may be higher, its durability and low maintenance needs lead to lower long-term operating costs.
This paper examines the critical need to enhance transport safety by facilitating the crossing of pedestrians and vehicles at different levels. It advocates for the design of pedestrian bridges without intermediate supports, specifically suspension and cable-stayed bridges, to effectively span wide highways. Additionally, the feasibility of using fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) as a load-bearing material is confirmed through numerous studies. To enable the mass production of FRP suspension bridge designs, improvements in the design methodologies that have primarily been applied to steel and reinforced concrete bridges are essential. This research includes theoretical and experimental analyses of the strength, flexural stiffness, and aerodynamic stability of single-span suspension bridges constructed with polymer composite materials. The findings validate the design of FRP bridge structures within the adaptation concept framework, offering insights to enhance calculation methods for FRP
