AASHTO M 337-21 PDF Download

The AASHTO M 337-21 standard outlines the requirements for fiber-reinforced polymer composite material systems designed for use in bridge and highway structures. The specification aims to ensure the structural integrity and durability of these materials for safe and efficient use in transportation infrastructure.

The standard encompasses various aspects of the composite material systems, including the types of fibers and resins to be used, the fabrication and testing procedures, and the required physical and mechanical properties. It provides guidelines for the design, manufacture, and quality control of fiber-reinforced polymer composite materials to ensure they meet the necessary performance standards.

This specification is particularly relevant in the field of transportation infrastructure as it addresses the specific requirements and considerations for the use of fiber-reinforced polymer composites in the construction and maintenance of highways and bridges. By providing a standardized framework for the evaluation and selection of these materials, the standard promotes consistency and reliability in their use, ultimately contributing to the safety and longevity of highway and bridge structures.
