UHPC Connection Details for Simple for Dead Load and Continuous for Live Load Steel Bridges in Nonseismic Areas
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A simple for dead load and continuous for live load (SDCL) steel bridge system offers an accelerated construction solution for steel bridges. Currently, the available details for this system consist of a girder-end detail ...
Static and Cyclic Performance of Semirigid Steel Beam‐to‐Column Connections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of a study of the performance of semirigid steel beam‐to‐column connections under static and cyclic loadings. Tests are reported for connections consisting of top and seat flange angles, and ...
Steel Reinforced Concrete Structures in 1995 Hyogoken-Nanbu Earthquake
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper provides a summary of typical damages inflicted on steel reinforced concrete (SRC) structures in Japan, during the 1995 Hyogoken-Nanbu earthquake. The paper is based on observations made by the writers during ...
Moment Connections to Circular Concrete-Filled Steel Tube Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: As part of the U.S.-Japan Cooperative Research Program on Composite/Hybrid Structures (1992), investigations were carried out at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and University of Illinois, to develop moment connection ...
Improved Moment Strength Prediction of Composite Steel Plate Girders in Positive Bending
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper contains an alternate method for the calculation of the predicted positive bending moment capacity of composite steel girders. The 2000 interim version of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation ...
Experimental Evaluation of High-Performance Sliding Surfaces for Bridge Bearings
