Abstract: The basic mechanical behavior of a nonprismatic concrete-encased beam with corrugated steel webs (CSWs) was investigated through a scale model experiment and finite-element model analysis. Because of the influence of ...

Abstract: For concrete box girders with wide flanges, a ribbed slab can increase the cantilever length and transverse stiffness while reducing the dead weight of the deck. For single box girder bridges with a large width-to-span ...

Abstract: A long-term exposure test of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with different flexural loads in a tidal environment has been conducted by taking the influence of time-dependent chloride diffusivity into consideration. According ...
