Assessing the Performance of Corroding RC Bridge Decks: A Critical Review of Corrosion Propagation Models
Corrosion of steel reinforcement is one of the most prevalent causes of reinforced concrete (RC) structures deterioration in chloride-contaminated environments. As a result, evaluating the impact of any possible corrosion-induced damages to reinforced concrete bridges strongly affects management decisions: such as inspection, maintenance and repair actions. The corrosion propagation phase is a ...
متن کاملCost-Effective Monitoring of Railroad Bridge Performance
The railroad network carries 40 % of the freight in the US. Railroad bridges are the most critical part of the network and they need to be properly maintained for safety of operations. Railroad managers inspect the bridges to assess their structural condition. Railroad managers are interested in measuring displacements under train crossing events to prioritize their bridge management and safety...
متن کاملProbabilistic lifetime assessment of RC structures under coupled corrosion-fatigue deterioration processes
Structural deterioration is becoming a major problem when considering long term performance of infrastructures. The existence of a corrosive environment, cyclic loading and concrete cracking cause structural strength degradation. The interaction of these conditions can only be taken into account when modeling the coupled action. In this paper, a new model to assess lifetime of RC structures sub...
متن کاملFracture Mechanics Based Fatigue Life Analysis of Rc Bridge Slab Repair by Fiber Cementitious Materials
In this thesis, an analytical tool for predicting fatigue performances of RC bridge slabs isdeveloped based on the concept of fracture mechanics. The degradation of bridging stress in thenormal direction of concrete cracks is considered as a primary mechanism for the propagation ofboth flexural cracks and shear cracks that induce the failure of RC slabs. The analysis of RC slabs...
متن کاملStress-Strain Field and Theoretical Analysis of RC Bridge
In this paper, a reinforced concrete(RC) bridge built in an interchange, in the city of Kerman (a city located in south of Iran) is examined by the Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) system. During the construction of this bridge such as; the main beams, slab, and retaining walls, some Electrical Strain Gauges were mounted on the main reinforcements at different locations within the body of thi...
