Behavior of Hollow-Core Steel-Concrete-Steel Columns Subjected to Torsion Loading
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016) -
Safety Assessment of the Antisliding between the Main Cable and Middle Saddle of a Three-Pylon Suspension Bridge Considering Traffic Load Modeling
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)The antisliding safety of the middle saddle is a key issue for the design of three-pylon suspension bridges. Vehicle load is the main adverse effect, especially unsymmetrical vehicle load. A general mechanical model on the ... -
Dynamic Ship-Impact Load on Bridge Structures Emphasizing Shock Spectrum Approximation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)In current design specifications, a static procedure using code-prescribed loads has been commonly used to design bridges against ship collisions. However, the collision-induced response may be greatly underestimated as a ... -
Optimal Force-Based Beam-Column Element Size for Reinforced-Concrete Piles in Bridges
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)The nonobjective disadvantages of the force-based frame element, such as the nonobjective curvature prediction, have been discussed by many researchers. The trial-and-error method is commonly used to determine element size, ... -
Sources of Crack Growth in Pretensioned Concrete-Bridge Girder Anchorage Zones after Detensioning
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)As a result of heavy prestressing, anchorage zones of bridge girders frequently crack in consistent patterns at prestress transfer and cause durability concerns. These cracks, which appear during prestress release, continue ... -
Field Verification of Simplified Bridge Weigh-in-Motion Techniques
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016) -
Seismic Performance of Precast, Pretensioned, and Cast-in-Place Bridges: Shake Table Test Comparison
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)A new bridge system has been developed to (1) reduce on-site construction time by using precast components, (2) eliminate major earthquake damage by utilizing column rocking and confinement of the column ends with a steel ... -
Strain-Based Damage-Assessment Method for Bridges under Moving Vehicular Loads Using Long-Gauge Strain Sensing
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016) -
Determining the Presence of Scour around Bridge Foundations Using Vehicle-Induced Vibrations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016) -
Experimental Study of Asphalt Surfacing Influence on Rib-to-Deck Joints Considering Temperature and Dynamic Effects
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016) -
Seismic Retrofit of a Three-Span RC Bridge with Buckling-Restrained Braces
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016) -
Experimental Study on Tensile Behavior of Wet Joints in a Prefabricated Composite Deck System Composed of Orthotropic Steel Deck and Ultrathin Reactive-Powder Concrete Layer
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)The widely used orthotropic steel deck system is subject to several durability problems: fatigue cracking of the steel, wearing of the surfacing, and corrosion. Thus, the composite deck system composed of an orthotropic ... -
Experimental and Numerical Evaluation of Unbonded Posttensioning Tendons Subjected to Wire Breaks
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)The development of corrosion as a result of tendon exposure to moisture or corrosive media often leads to wire fractures. Such fractures in unbonded tendons are expected to induce global strand and anchor response through ... -
New Simple Approach to Prediction of Axial Settlement of Single Piles under Design Load
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016) -
Innovative System for Curved Precast Posttensioned Concrete I-Girder and U-Girder Bridges
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016) -
Evaluation of Drilled Shaft Capacity Using Embedded Sensors and Statnamic Testing
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016) -
Laboratory Testing of GFRP-RC Panels with UHPFRC Joints of the Nipigon River Cable-Stayed Bridge in Northwest Ontario, Canada
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016) -
Failure Mechanism of Expansion Joints in a Suspension Bridge
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Premature failure of expansion joints is a concern for bridge owners. After opening to traffic, the Jiangyin suspension bridge experienced frequent damage in expansion joints, and the problem remained unsolved even after ... -
Load-Rating Procedures for Railroad Flatcars Repurposed as Sustainable Highway Bridges
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Many county highway agencies have explored different options for economical replacement of existing deteriorating bridges. Using retired railroad flatcars (RRFCs) as the bridge superstructure is an attractive and sustainable ...
