Abstract: A method is presented for prediction of stresses and strains of partially prestressed concrete structures. Members are assumed to be uncracked under permanent loads, but cracking can occur under transient live load. A ...

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 ...

Abstract: This paper is based on the results of a comprehensive field investigation of the behavior of a double‐cell cast‐in‐place box culvert. The investigation was conducted by the University of Nebraska and was completed in ...

Abstract: Shear studs used in composite steel bridge construction are typically 19.1 mm

Abstract: The

Abstract: Investigation of the background of the 610 mm (24 in.) spacing of stud shear connectors showed that this limit was set on the basis of a small amount of testing of beams with spacing greater than this limit. The literature ...
