Fiberglass decking is more durable than treated lumber and is maintenance free. See how we used it for a bridge deck at a national park. a national park.
This new roadside walking trail features a maintenance free fiberglass deck in a custom color and durable beam construction.
Connecting a new walking path in the Jackson Grant development, this composite deck bridge matches the custom style of the homes surrounding it.
This project involved repurposing a railroad bridge with FRP decking and custom railing at the end of the bike and hike trail system in the town of Delphi, Indiana.
