RISSeismic Design of a Long-Span Cable-Stayed Bridge with Fluid Viscous Dampers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: As a passive energy dissipation device, the fluid viscous damper (FVD) is effective for mitigating wind or seismic load-induced vibrations. In this paper, the effects of FVDs for a cable-stayed bridge under randomly generated ...
Lateral Load Analysis of Stand-off Anchor Bolt Connections Using the Load-Distribution Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A comprehensive method was derived for the analysis of stand-off anchor bolt connections with various stand-off distances that are subjected to lateral loading. The procedure applied the load-distribution method that is ...
Inelastic Seismic Displacement Amplification for Bridges: Dependence upon Various Intensity Measures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Reasonably simple yet accurate estimation of inelastic displacement demands on bridges during strong ground shaking is a critical step in the structural design process. Current code methods rely on the equal displacement ...
Project Management and Delay Factors of Public Housing Construction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Most reported project management studies to identify major factors in construction delay are based on self-administered questionnaire surveys of the views of project participants. A small number of studies are based on the ...
Preventing Low-Frequency High-Impact Incidents with a Zero-Injury Safety Culture
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Forum papers are thought-provoking opinion pieces or essays founded in fact, sometimes containing speculation, on a civil engineering topic of general interest and relevance to the readership of the journal. The views ...

Evaluation of an Existing Steel Box Trunnion Girder and Its Posttensioned Anchors before Liftoff Testing: Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Can Wood Become an Alternative Material for Tall Building Construction?
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: With a growing interest in using timber as a structural material for tall buildings in response to trends in sustainable design, several timber buildings between 7 and 10 stories have been built in Europe and Australia. ...
Direct and Indirect Costs of Change Orders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Pricing of construction change orders is one of the major causes of conflict among owners, designers, and contractors on a construction project. This article analyzes the inclusion and treatment of various direct-cost items ...
