Original Abstract

The paper summarizes the results and evaluation of tests of the resistance of glass-fibre-concrete components used for footbridge deck cover subjected to wind loading actions. The main aims of this research was not only to verify the objective load-carrying capacity and serviceability of covering panels, but also to verify the use of glass-fibre-concrete and its properties, if applied for non-typical product. The tests also show the usage of the unique and effective method of the vacuum loading. The research has been elaborated based on the requirements of DAKO Brno Ltd. Company.
