Book Bridge Evaluation  Repair and Rehabilitation

Download or read book Bridge Evaluation Repair and Rehabilitation written by A.S. Nowak and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evaluation, repair and rehabilitation of bridges are increasingly important topics in the effort to deal with the deteriorating infrastructure. For example, in the United States about 40 percent of the nation's 570,000 bridges are classified, according to the Federal Highway Administra tion's (FHW A) criteria, as deficient and in need of rehabilitation and replacement. In other countries the situation is similar. FHW A estimates the cost of a bridge replacement and reha bilitation program at 50 billion dollars. The major factors that have contributed to the present situation are: the age, inadequate maintenance, increasing load spectra and environmental contamination. The deficient bridges are posted, repaired or replaced. The disposition of bridges involves clear economical and safety implications. To avoid high costs of replacement or repair, the evaluation must accurately reveal the present load carrying capacity of the struc ture and predict loads and any further changes in the capacity (deterioration) in the applicable time span. Accuracy of bridge evaluation can be improved by using the recent developments in bridge diagnostics, structural tests, material tests, structural analysis and probabilistic methods. There is a need for an international exchange of advanced experience to increase the research effi ciency. The Workshop is organized on the premise that the exchange of existing American and European experience in the area of bridge evaluation, repair and rehabilitation is beneficial for both parties involved.

Book Bridge Deterioration Models to Support Indiana s Bridge Management System

Download or read book Bridge Deterioration Models to Support Indiana s Bridge Management System written by Milhan Moomen and published by . This book was released on 2016-12-31 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An effective bridge management system that is equipped with reliable deterioration models enables agency engineers to carry out monitoring and long-term programming of bridge repair actions. At the project level, deterioration models help the agency to track the physical condition of bridge elements and to specify when bridge maintenance, rehabilitation and replacement can be expected. Also, with reliable deterioration models, the agency can customize bridge repair or replacement schedules that incorporate element condition, functional obsolescence, and pre-specified performance thresholds. At the network level, component-specific deterioration models are useful for system-wide needs assessment over a specified future time horizon, and to quantifying the system-wide consequences of funding shortfalls or funding increases in terms of specified performance measures including average values of bridge condition and remaining service life. The bridge deterioration models that are currently in use in the Indiana Bridge Management System were developed over two decades ago. Since then, significant changes have taken place in inspection methods, technologies used, advanced statistical tools for data analysis. Also, because of the lack of reliable data, such items as the truck traffic and climate conditions were not included in past modeling efforts. In recent years, these obstacles have been minimized and therefore, there is an opportunity to update the deterioration models for the various bridge components. In addressing this research need, the present study developed families of curves representing deterioration models for bridge deck, superstructure, and the substructure. The National Bridge Inventory database was used, and the models use the NBI condition ratings as the response variable. The model families were categorized by administrative region, functional class, and superstructure material type. The explanatory variables include traffic volume and truck traffic, design type, and climatic condition, and design features. Deterministic and probabilistic models were developed.
