Europe saw the first bridge completely made of plastic and installed in Germany which is expected to last up to 50 years without any repairs. Weighing 80 tons, the bridge's carriageway slab is made of fiberglass-reinforced polymer (FRP), and then glued onto two steel bearers. The bridge was pre-assembled a unit and then transported to the construction site, with total installation taking less than one day. The FRP bridge is 27m in length and 5m in width and meets 2010 Eurocode standards, the new code prepared by European Commission for public construction purposes. The fiberglass-reinforced polymer bridge is able to withstand the load of all kind of vehicles and was put into place for use near Friedberg (20 minutes from Frankfurt).
