Abstract: This study entailed axial cyclic loading tests conducted on full-scale diagonal tension members of steel deck-truss bridges to evaluate the effects of seismic retrofitting methods using carbon fiber–reinforced polymer ...

Abstract: Recently, several events involving the corrosion-induced damage of gusset plate connections of steel truss bridges have been reported worldwide. In this study, the remaining load-carrying capacity of a corroded gusset plate ...

Abstract: In steel truss bridges, severe damage due to corrosion at gusset plate connections has been widely reported. This study investigated the effectiveness of a repair method using carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) sheets ...
