Constructional method of UHPC on steel deck of long span suspension bridge and in-situ experimental test
The Second Dongting Lake (SDTL) Bridge is the longest steel truss girder suspension bridge in China, which has a main span of 1480 m. To alleviate deterioration issues in the orthotropic steel deck (OSD), the steel-ultra high performance concrete (UHPC) li ...
EPFL2020Behaviour of stiffened extended shear tab connections under gravity induced shear force
Stiffened extended shear tab connections (either in full-depth or partial-depth configurations) are widely used to connect simply supported beams to the web of supporting girders or columns. Full-scale laboratory tests of stiffened extended shear tab conne ...
2018FULL SCALE TESTING OF EXTENDED BEAM-TO-COLUMN AND BEAMTO- GIRDER SHEAR TAB CONNECTIONS SUBJECTED TO SHEAR
This paper discusses the findings of an experimental program that was conducted to investigate the behaviour of extended shear tab beam-to-column and beam-to-girder connections that are commonly used in North America. The laboratory results showed that ext ...
2015A monitoring system for determination of real deck slab behaviour in prestressed box girder bridges
Eugen Brühwiler, Mark Anthony Treacy
Due to ever increasing traffic demands the fatigue safety and service life of the bridges of a railway line in Brazil need to be examined. Conventional assessment methods using load models and approaches as suggested in codes lead to conservative results r ...
