Book Ice Loads on Bridge Piers

Download or read book Ice Loads on Bridge Piers written by Frederick J. Watts and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A great deal of information has been published in the last decade concerning ice forces. Unfortunately, very little has been published in journals that are regularly read by civil engineers and, in particular, bridge engineers. As a result, many bridge engineers who are concerned with the action of ice on bridge structures are unaware of its existence. Most of the material contained herein has been extracted from papers or proceedings of specialty conferences or reports of research agencies. The objective of this paper is to present an overview of the problem and to bring together in one publication a state-of-the-art review of factors and phenomena which are significant to the ice force problems as they relate to the design of bridge piers"--Page 3-4

Book An Initial Probabilistic Assessment of Ice Loading on Beaufort Sea Structures  microform

Download or read book An Initial Probabilistic Assessment of Ice Loading on Beaufort Sea Structures microform written by Marcellus, R. W and published by . This book was released on 198? with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The objective ... was to provide a preliminary estimate of the anticipated ice loads on offshore production structures located on the Continental Shelf of the Canadian Beaufort Sea. Estimates of ice loading for 12 basic bermed structures in 60 m water depth and 8 bermed structures in 20 m water depth are provided at the end of this chapter. These estimated ice loads result from a comprehensive review of the factors involved when calculating probabilistic or return period ice loading. The estimated ice loads are felt to be accurate for the assumptions used in the analysis to within 50 percent (assuming that the crushing pressure curve and the pack ice forces agreed to for this work by the partners are accurate). This estimate of the error is based on estimates of the inherent errors in the computer model solution and in the ice design statistics used in the analysis. A breakdown of this estimate is provided. ... The load graphs ... along with the platform volume graphs presented ... allow the user to optimize the geometric design of platforms at particular locations on the Continental shelf of the Canadian Beaufort Sea. In general, the estimates provided in this report are conservative, since the local ice thickness which produces the maximum load has been chosen without consideration for the probability of having that chosen local ice thickness. If this probability were included this would result in lower ice loads in most cases"--ASTIS database.

Book Bridge Scour and Stream Instability Countermeasures

Download or read book Bridge Scour and Stream Instability Countermeasures written by U. S. Department of Transportation and published by . This book was released on 2015-10-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this document is to identify and provide design guidelines for bridge scour and stream instability countermeasures that have been implemented by various State departments of transportation (DOTs) in the United States. Countermeasure experience, selection, and design guidance are consolidated from other FHWA publications in this document to support a comprehensive analysis of scour and stream instability problems and provide a range of solutions to those problems. The results of recently completed National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) projects are incorporated in the design guidance, including: countermeasures to protect bridge piers and abutments from scour; riprap design criteria, specifications, and quality control, and environmentally sensitive channel and bank protection measures. Selected innovative countermeasure concepts and guidance derived from practice outside the United States are introduced. In addition, guidance for the preparation of Plans of Action ...
