This paper examines the reliability of welded stud shear connectors for steel-concrete composite bridge girders. A finite element model of a simply-supported bridge was created featuring link connector elements representing the shear studs between beam and ...
Bridges are a critical component of national infrastructures and economies. A significant percentage of bridges built all around the world are made of reinforced concrete which according to building codes have a life span between 80-100 years. However, str ...
The evolution of European traffic, combined with the current works of revision of the Eurocode (CEN250 project 2nd Eurocode generation), represents an opportunity to improve the simplified method for fatigue checks (also known as the lambda method) for roa ...
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 ...
Cold stiffening of the plate of Orthotropic Steel Deck (OSD) of bridges can be achieved by adding a layer of Ultra-High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Composite material (UHPFRC) on top of the deck plate by composite design, thus expecting to re ...
Cast-in-place thin layers of Ultra-High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Composites (UHPFRC) on the specific zones of existing reinforced concrete (RC) bridge decks has been demonstrated to be a technically efficient and economic rehabilitation an ...
Ultra-High-Performance Fibre Reinforced Cementitious Composite (UHPFRC) has recently been used to design lightweight structures and strengthen existing ones, with more than 300 applications in Switzerland. Several composite timber-UHPFRC bridges have been ...
Ultrahigh-performance concrete (UHPC) offers significant potential to address a variety of needs in bridge design, construction, and performance enhancement. Bridge owners have shown willingness to embrace novel solutions that could address specific challe ...
In contrast to the Swiss load model used for new bridge structures (SIA 261), which has roots in a Europe-wide weigh-in-motion (WIM) study and considers the full design life of new structures, the model for existing structures (SIA 269) from 2005 is derive ...
Constructed in 1969, the Chillon viaducts constitute a vital component of the Swiss roadway network. The bridge deck was strengthened in 2015 by means of an Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cement-based Composite for alleviating the effects of deter ...
