متن کاملGraphical 3D Visualization of Highway Bridge Ratings
Aging highway infrastructure requires effective rating methodologies to prioritize bridges for rehabilitation and repair. To aid engineers in decision making regarding bridge maintenance, a three-dimensional 3D visualization system is developed for rating reinforced concrete deck-girder bridge. Color codings show the most probable mode of failure for girder cross sections under combined moment-...
متن کاملEvaluation of Highway Bridge Strength Considering Parapets
This paper describes a study evaluating increase in design strength, performance and capacity when including bridge parapets in a bridge analytical model. Traditionally, concrete parapets are treated solely as superimposed dead load in an overall bridge structural design. Parapets are detailed from a safety standpoint to resist impact forces from vehicle loading. However, in the global design m...
متن کاملevaluation of torsional stiffness in beam and slab bridge decks based on load testing
in this paper, evaluation of torsional stiffness in beam and slab bridge deck elements is presented. a beam and slab bridge decks structurally behave as a grillage. a grillage has an efficient transverse load distribution due to transverse asymmetric load. in the case of bridge deck without transverse beams in the span, transverse load distribution depends on the torsional stiffness of longitud...
متن کاملFirst Smart Highway Bridge in Canada
The Beddington Trail/Centre Street, Calgary, Alberta, Canada, is the first prestressed concrete highway bridge built in Canada pretensioned by Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic, FRP, tendons. It is also the first bridge which has utilized a structurally integrated optical sensors system to monitor the behaviour. The bridge is completed and was opened to traffic on November 5, 1993. The project in...
