G. W. Whistler and the Howe Bridges on the Nikolaev Railway, 1842–1851
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)The influence of the American engineer George Washington Whistler on the design of the St. Petersburg-Moscow Railway, called the Nikolaev Railway, is discussed. The line, built between 1842 and 1851 and approximately ... -
Direct Redundancy Evaluation of Bridges Designated as Fracture-Critical
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)This paper describes the procedure recommended in two specific standards to define and quantify structural redundancy using a direct analysis of bridges. The procedure is illustrated using two typical bridge configurations. ... -
Deterioration Trends and Structural Performances of Bridge Types Using Deck Areas
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016) -
Slope Stabilization Using Recycled Plastic Pins
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Shallow slope failures are common in highway embankments in the north Texas region and pose significant maintenance problems for the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). As a cost-effective alternative, recycled ... -
Maximum Dynamic-Load Allowance of Bridge with GFRP-Reinforced Concrete Deck
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016) -
On-Site Acoustic-Emission Monitoring for Assessment of a Prestressed Concrete Double-Tee-Beam Bridge without Plans
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Acoustic emission was used in this study to assess the condition of a simple-span, prestressed concrete bridge located in southern New Mexico during a proof test. The 40-year-old bridge is county owned and no design plans ... -

Synergistic and Interdisciplinary Approaches for the Conservation of Monumental Heritage: Cupola of Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence, Italy
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)This paper presents the results of an interdisciplinary study carried out on Brunelleschi’s Cupola of Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence, Italy, one of the most emblematic masonry domes in the world. The cupola has been ... -
Sensitivity of Markov Model to Different Sampling Sizes of Condition Data
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)After many years of service, constructed infrastructure facilities including drainage pipes, bridges, and roads show sign of deterioration. To ensure public safety and efficient management of these crucial assets, condition ... -
Methodology for Rapid Structural Vulnerability Assessment for Service Loads at the Territorial Scale
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Recent Italian collapses have revealed that hidden defects can be the cause of ruinous and apparently unpredictable failures. In this scenario the necessity of a structural vulnerability assessment at the territorial scale ... -
