Abstract:
A composite structural panel for use in bridge structures, and method of manufacturing same, comprises a top panel and a bottom panel separated by and attached to at least one, but preferably a plurality, of structural composite preforms which may be fabricated by a continuous manufacturing process and may be saturated by resin using a continuous wetting process. The composite preforms may take any cross sectional shape but are preferably trapezoidal. The top and bottom panels may be fabricated from a plurality of layers of woven fabric layers and non-woven fabric layers which are saturated with a resin that is subsequently cured using cure processes known in the art. The composite structural panel of the invention is usable as a flat structural member for use as bridge decking, ramps, trestles, and any application requiring a structural panel.

Claim (Index 9):
The bridge structure of  claim 4 , wherein said plurality of fabric layers comprising said top plate and said bottom plate are further defined as being characterized by having a first group of fabric layers, second group of fabric layers, and third group of fabric layers wherein said first group of fabric layers comprises a plurality of woven fiber layers separated by non-woven fabric layers and having longitudinal fibers aligned in a first direction; wherein said second group of fabric layers comprises a plurality of woven fiber layers separated by non-woven fabric layers and having longitudinal fibers aligned in a second direction that is transverse to said first direction; wherein third group of fabric layers comprises a plurality of woven fiber layers separated by non-woven fabric layers and having longitudinal fibers aligned in said first direction.
