Experimental Study on Embedded Steel Plate Composite Coupling Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A research study has been conducted on a newly proposed design of embedded steel plate composite coupling beams with shear studs in order to improve the performance of reinforced concrete (RC) coupling beams under severe ...
Integrated Qualitative and Quantitative Methodology to Assess Validity and Credibility of Models for Bridge Maintenance Management System Development
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: At the heart of a bridge maintenance management system (BMMS) is a set of performance prediction and maintenance decision-making models. If focused on quantitative methods alone, the ultimate validity of these models can ...
Integrating Semiparametric and Parametric Models in Survival Analysis of Bridge Element Deterioration
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The central challenge in developing deterioration models for infrastructure facilities based on field data, is the right selection of base models along with the specific nature of the available condition data. A parametric ...
