(2) Experimental testing of typical wood species. (3) Experimental testing of retrofitted wood species. (4) Documenting and summarizing the findings in the final report. It is anticipated that three brief progress reports will be submitted after each of the projectâ€s critical phases.

<strong>Quarterly</strong> Progress <strong>Report</strong> 9/16/2011 - Yes 1/19/2012 - Yes Progress & Significant Results This Quarter: The experimental program continued to examine the impact of using GFRP wraps on severely damaged piles. The focus was to examine the effect of reduction in the volumetric ratio of GFRP on the strength of the retrofitted piles. In addition, composing the final report of the project has started. Anticipated Work Next Quarter: Complete the experimental testing and progress more in the final report writing.
