  • Patent number: 4615166
    Abstract: A structural panel (FIG. 1) for use for example in bridge decking has spaced steel sheets (2A, 2B) between which are corrugated stiffening members (3A) of glass fibre reinforced plastics material. The stiffening members (3A) are glued to the spaced sheets (2A, 2B). The voids (15) are filled with plastics foam (4). A strong structure results, in which fabrication costs and maintenance costs are reduced, by virtue of the absence of great lengths of fatigue failure-susceptible welds.
