Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials have shown great potential as alternative bridge construction materials to conventional materials such as steel and concrete. This is especially valid in the field of repair and rehabilitation of existing bridges as well as in new bridge construction. The acceptance of composites in the highway bridge industry is mainly due to their superior properties such as high strength, durability, corrosion resistance, and fatigue resistance. Moreover, FRPs are well suited for mass production of structural shapes because of their high strength-to-weight ratios, which has resulted in the rapid installation of FRP modular decks on highway bridges. Details related to the construction of FRP modular decks as replacements on existing highway bridge superstructures are provided. In addition, details on shipping, handling, erection, assembly, deck-to-deck connections, deck-to-stringer connections, joints, and wearing surfaces are discussed.
