RISFatigue Evaluation of Rib-to-Deck Welded Joints of Orthotropic Steel Bridge Deck
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study reported fatigue test results of 300-mm-wide specimens with three details: 80% partial joint penetration (80%PJP), weld melt-through (WMT), and both. The specimens were cut out from full-scale orthotropic deck ...
Failure Load Test of a CFRP Strengthened Railway Bridge in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The results obtained when performing a load test to failure of an existing structure are valuable when assessing calculation models, updating finite element models, and investigating the true structural behavior. In this ...
Development of a Short-Span Fiber-Reinforced Composite Bridge for Emergency Response and Military Applications
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A continued desire for increased mobility in the aftermath of natural disasters, or on the battlefield, has lead to the need for improved light-weight bridging solutions. Currently within the United States military there ...
Effect of Superstructure Temperature Changes on Intermediate Pier Foundation Stresses in Integral Abutment Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Structural members that are restrained against motion can develop internal stresses when subjected to changes in temperature. The phenomenon of temperature-induced internal stresses in superstructure members of bridges has ...
Live Load Tests of the San Antonio “Y”
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of static live load tests performed on several spans of the San Antonio “Y” Project, Phase IIC, prior to its opening to traffic. The San Antonio “Y” Project is an urban viaduct comprising ...
Investigation of AASHTO Live-Load Reduction in Reinforced Concrete Slab Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of a three-dimensional (3D) finite-element study that investigated the effect of the multipresence factor of the load-reduction factors used in the AASHTO Bridge Design Specifications. Typical ...
Increasing Girder Elastic Buckling Strength Using Split Pipe Bearing Stiffeners
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Warping restraining devices can result in substantial improvements in the girder elastic buckling capacity; however, calculating this increase can be complex. This paper presents a simplified method to evaluate the increase ...
Experimental Tests of Truss Bridge Gusset Plate Connections with Sway-Buckling Response
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The collapse of the Interstate 35W bridge in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in 2007 brought into question the strength of large-size gusset plates in steel truss bridges. To provide new data on the behavior and strength of ...
Field-Measured Response of an Integral Abutment Bridge with Short Steel H-Piles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Integral abutment bridges (IABs) with short steel H-pile (HP) supported foundations (
Performance Evaluation of Deteriorating Highway Bridges Located in High Seismic Areas
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper studies the life-cycle performance and cost of reinforced concrete highway bridges subjected to earthquake ground motions while they are continuously exposed to the attack of chloride ions. The penetration of ...
