Decisions regarding the management of civil infrastructure are becoming more crucial as a large share of bridges is presently approaching what is often considered to be the end of their theoretical service duration. Evaluating existing structures using a d ...
With the development of new materials and advanced structural analysis, alongside increasing aesthetic requirements, recent years have witnessed a trend toward longer, taller, and lighter footbridges. Different from vehicular bridges, footbridges carry rel ...
Part 2 of the Eurocode 3 (EN 1993-2) proposes a straight forward fatigue verification method using a single heavy vehicle model (FLM3) and a damage equivalent factor, lambda, to represent the fatigue damaging effects of the real traffic on road bridges. Th ...
The conceptual designs by Christian Menn of four landmark bridges are presented: 1) a 350-m span cable-stayed bridge with jointless deck girder, 2) a cable-stayed bridge with a single “spindle-shaped” pylon, 3) a bridge with an arch reaching high above the ...
Presented here is a numerical investigation of the influence of non-uniform soil conditions on a prototype concrete bridge with three bents (four span) where soil beneath bridge bents are varied between stiff sands and soft clay. A series of high-fidelity ...
This paper presents the results of six tests on R/C bridge cantilever slabs without shear reinforcement subjected to concentrated loading. The specimens represent actual deck slabs of box-girder bridges scaled 3/4. They were 10mlong with a clear cantilever ...
Optimal management strategies for a group of bridges that may incur damage from flooding during a 15-year period were determined using three approaches, and then the strategies were compared. The three approaches are the supply and demand system approach a ...
