Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decade, there has been increasing national concern about the adequacy of underwater inspection of bridge substructures. A number of factors have contributed to this concern, in particular the collapse of several major spans, some of which led to loss of life. Substructure failures have been the cause of bridge collapses and the subject of at least five National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) highway bridge investigations. In at least four instances, deficiencies in the substructure could have been identified by underwater inspection. During this project, 425 bridges in Virginia were identified as requiring underwater inspection. It was concluded that assessments of the type and extent of damage to structures below the waterline prior to inspection are highly inaccurate. Prioritizing bridges for inspections must be based on an established history of underwater inspections. Trends in the deterioration of underwater structures indicate several factors to be considered in developing a priority system for an underwater inspection program. These trends are described, and time intervals for the inspection of bridges with a previous inspection history are suggested.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Road and bridge networks in OECD countries are ageing and substantial funds are needed for repair and rehabilitation. Underwater or underground damage to bridge substructures is often invisible, inaccessible, and hard to assess. A variety of measures and technologies for bridge substructures has proven practically effective despite difficult geological and environmental conditions. This report catalogs actual damage and defects of bridge substructures and provides several examples of inspection, repair, and strengthening technologies. It proposes measures to protect investment capital while insuring low operational costs. It is a resource book for policy makers and administrators responsible for bridge management.

Download or read book Risk Management in Civil Infrastructure written by Mohammed M. Ettouney and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 734 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents several original theories for risk, including Theory of Risk Monitoring, and Theory of Risk Acceptance, in addition to several analytical models for computing relative and absolute risk. The book discusses risk limit, states of risk, and the emerging concept of risk monitoring. The interrelationships between risk and resilience are also highlighted in an objective manner. The book includes several practical case studies showing how risk management and its components can be used to enhance performance of infrastructures at reasonable costs.

Download or read book Underwater Bridge Maintenance and Repair written by Ronald L. Purvis and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis on underwater bridge maintenance and repair will be of special interest to bridge maintenance engineers and others involved with repair of bridge elements located below the waterline and in the splash zone. Procedures for correctly assessing the problem and engineering the repair within the constraints of individual situations, including bridge scour considerations, are described. Protection, maintenance, and repair of concrete, masonry, steel, and timber bridge foundation elements are also addressed. This synthesis updates the maintenance and repair portion of NCHRP Synthesis 88: Underwater Inspection and Repair of Bridge Substructures. This report of the Transportation Research Board identifies and describes current practices and innovative repair techniques for problems associated with settlement, scour, and deterioration of underwater bridge elements. The synthesis considers various types of protection, maintenance, and repair work on bridge substructures, both underwater and in the splash zone, and includes techniques, and their effectiveness. Current research in the topic area and critical research needs are also identified. A limited bibliography is also provided.
