The report discusses tests on a practical structural element for a bridge enclosure. The analytical approach uses the concepts developed in the EUROCOMP Design Code and EUROCOMP Elandbook. Results of the test programme indicate that provided care is taken in the experimental approach the design methods proposed give realistic...

Abstract This chapter continues the discussions of the development of advanced polymer composite material applications associated with bridge engineering. It focuses on the rehabilitation of metallic bridge structures, all-FRP composite bridges and bridges built with hybrid systems. Chapter 16 covered the materials used in FRP composites, in-service properties and applications of FRP composites in bridge enclosures, the rehabilitation of reinforced and prestressed concrete bridge beams and columns. 

There are perhaps hundreds of miscellaneous unsaturated polyester resin construction applications. These would include window frames, doors, cabinet enclosures, electrical boxes, etc. In addition, recent developments bode well for unsaturated polyesters in construction markets. Concrete rebar, bridge construction and general infrastructure repair are examples of growing construction applications. 

A load cell is a strain gage bridge in an enclosure forming a complete transducer device.

Unreinforced masonry, considering that is a simple construction technique which allows an energy-efficient enclosure with no thermal bridges concern, is the first adopted option. In this case. 

A mesocosm is an enclosure containing a well-defined amount of the environment being investigated (in this study it was seawater) which is maintained at close to natural conditions, but for which environmental factors can be controlled and manipulated. It therefore provides a bridge between laboratory-based and real-world measurements. In this study, the mesocosms were sirrqily nine polyethylene enclosures (- 20 m watCT volume each, with - 4.3 m headspace volume).
