Eliminating Deck Joints Using Debonded Link Slabs: Research and Field Tests in Ontario
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: One of the main factors affecting the durability of bridge structures is the presence of expansion joints at bridge support locations. The inability of current joint systems to provide reliable, long-term, leak-proof ...
Experimental Study on Full-Scale Pretensioned Bridge Girder Damaged by Vehicle Impact and Repaired with Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Technology
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A bridge was damaged when a dump truck violated the height clearance limitation on Highway 401 in Ontario, Canada. The collision caused extensive damage to the AASHTO Type-III precast/prestressed bridge girders, which led ...
