Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Discussion of “Improving Design Coordination for Building Projects. I: Information Model” by Tarek Hegazy, Essam Zaneldin, and Donald Grierson
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Closure to “Efficient Prestressed Concrete-Steel Composite Girder for Medium-Span Bridges. I: System Description and Design” by Yaohua Deng and George Morcous
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Deterministic and Probabilistic Lifecycle Cost Assessment: Applications to Nebraska Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The main purpose of this paper is to utilize lifecycle cost analysis (LCCA) as a decision-support tool for three commonly encountered decisions in bridge management: bridge deck overlay decisions, expansion joint replacement ...
Accuracy of Ground-Penetrating Radar for Concrete Pavement Thickness Measurement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Core extraction is the most common method for measuring concrete layer thickness in pavement construction. Although this method provides a very accurate thickness measurement, it is destructive, time-consuming, and does ...
Deterministic and Probabilistic Lifecycle Cost Assessment: Applications to Nebraska Bridges

Abstract: The main purpose of this paper is to utilize lifecycle cost analysis (LCCA) as a decision-support tool for three commonly encountered decisions in bridge management: bridge deck overlay decisions, expansion joint replacement ...
Circular Shear Pocket Connection for Full-Depth Precast Concrete Deck Construction
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Full-depth precast concrete deck systems have several advantages compared with cast-in-place concrete deck systems in bridge construction, such as improved construction quality and safety, reduced construction duration and ...
Evaluating the Impact of Bridge-Deck Removal on the Performance of Precast/Prestressed Concrete I-Girders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Precast/prestressed concrete I-girders with wide and thin top flanges have been widely used by several transportation agencies in the last two decades. These girders have many advantages, such as accommodating a large ...
Design, Fabrication, and Construction of Static-Cast Concrete Poles Reinforced with GFRP
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Concrete poles used in transmission structures usually are made using the spun-cast method. Recent surveys found that some spun-cast concrete poles have had durability problems as a result of longitudinal cracking and ...
Performance Evaluation of a New Precast Concrete Bridge Deck System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Precast concrete (PC) deck systems have several advantages over cast-in-place (CIP) concrete decks in bridge construction, such as improved quality, reduced construction duration, and less dependence on weather and site ...
