Durability is another hallmark of FRP bridge deck panels. Unlike traditional materials, which can suffer from rust, rot, and chemical degradation, FRP materials are impervious to many types of environmental wear. This makes them particularly suitable for infrastructure that must withstand challenging conditions, such as roadway exposure to de-icing salts, moisture, and freeze-thaw cycles. Consequently, the lifespan of a bridge featuring FRP deck panels can extend significantly beyond that of conventional materials, promoting long-term sustainability in infrastructure investments.
