WWW INSTRUCTIONAL DOCUMENTATION FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SMART COMPOSITE BRIDGE

The paper describes the 'Smart Composite Bridge' component of the Smart Engineering WWW site that provides comprehensive documentation on a demonstration highway bridge. This prototype bridge project demonstrates the use of fiber reinforced composites along with smart sensing techniques. The bridge was designed for highway loading with a normal use by pedestrians and light vehicles. The WWW site presents an intelligently tailored instructional environment with imagery from a live web camera, technical information and papers, the location of the bridge, a record of development and descriptions of load tests.
