ACI SP-257

This CD-ROM consists of 11 papers which were presented in two special sessions sponsored by ACI Committee 440 at the ACI Spring Convention in Los Angeles, California, on March 31, 2008. The technical papers presented at the sessions and published in this volume cover both open and closed FRP forms, including bridge decks, concrete-filled tubes, and girders, and address important relevant aspects such as surface preparation, bond aspects, fatigue, constructability, confinement, and field applications.
