Ductility Evaluation of Concrete-Encased Steel Bridge Piers Subjected to Lateral Cyclic Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An experimental and analytical study was conducted to investigate the ductility of concrete-encased steel piers, referred to as “steel-reinforced concrete (SRC) construction.” Based on the cyclic lateral loading tests of ...
Updating the Seismic Reliability of Existing RC Structures in a Marine Environment by Incorporating the Spatial Steel Corrosion Distribution: Application to Bridge Piers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Although several models are available for evaluating the structural performance of corroded reinforced concrete (RC) structures, seismic reliability assessments considering the effect of steel corrosion are currently scarce. ...
Probabilistic Life-Cycle Connectivity Assessment of Transportation Networks Using Deep Learning
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Bridges and pavements are two major infrastructure components of a transportation network providing mobility of freight and commodities for economic vitality and access to a range of users as social benefits. However, the ...
Probabilistic Time–Variant Functionality-Based Analysis of Transportation Networks Incorporating Asphalt Pavements and Bridges under Multiple Hazards
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Progressive and sudden deteriorations are the main reasons affecting the functionality of a transportation network. This paper presents a general probabilistic approach in which the ensembles of regression trees (ERT) are ...
Precast RC Blocks with Connections Composed of Steel Shear Keys and CFRP Sheets for the Superstructure of Temporary Bridges in a Postdisaster Situation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Many bridges would be washed away due to giant tsunamis caused by the anticipated Nankai Trough earthquake. The accelerated bridge construction (ABC) concept should be applied to temporary bridge construction to save on-site ...
Probabilistic Connectivity Assessment of Road Networks Subjected to Ground Motion and Tsunamis Considering the Spatial Correlations among Hazard Intensities
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Before the anticipated Nankai Trough earthquake, the effects of multiple cascading hazards on bridge performance and the associated functionalities of road networks must be assessed to develop recovery strategies. This ...
