Download or read book Verification of Performance and Design Criteria for High Performance Steel Bridges written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High Performance Steel (HPS) has quickly gained popularity in United States bridge applications due to its high yield strength and better weldability, toughness, ductility, and weathering characteristics. However, a great deal of information is missing from the body of knowledge on HPS performance and design criteria, especially concerning HPS-70W (485W) produced by thermo-mechanical controlled processing (TMCP). This research examines material characteristics and fatigue performance of HPS-70W (485W) TMCP, as well the performance of Ohio's first HPS bridge in service. Data from 96 tensile tests show that yield and ultimate strengths of HPS-70W (485W) TMCP are dependent upon plate thickness and orientation. 75 Charpy V-Notch (CVN) specimens were tested, and all met the ASTM A709 requirement for minimum toughness. Twenty-nine specimens were tested to investigate the fatigue resistance of continuous plates with punched, drilled, and reamed holes. Results from this investigation suggest that current restrictions mandated by some state departments of transportation concerning punching holes are not overly restrictive when HPS-485W (70W) is utilized. Performance of drilled and sub-punched and reamed specimens met or exceeded American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) (2004) requirements for Category B details. Performance of Submerged Arc Weld (SAW) and Narrow Gap Improved Electroslag Weld (NGI-ESW) welded butt-splices utilizing HPS-70W (485W) were examined. All specimens performed considerably better than predicted by the AASHTO fatigue life equation.
Download or read book LRFD Steel Bridge Fabrication Specifications written by American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "These specifications govern the fabrication of vehicular steel bridges to include the furnishing and fabrication of steel structures and the structural steel portions of other structures. Their objective is to achieve quality and value from a common specification that standardizes vehicular steel bridge fabrication in the United States. Specifically, the specifications: (1) minimize variations among projects; (2) provide economy, because individual fabricators would not have to change their methods and production variables; (3) allow expertise in steel bridge fabrication to be shared among states; and (4) enable owners to share resources, minimizing the effort each would, otherwise, spend to maintain their individual bridge fabrication specifications."--publisher website

Download or read book Principles of Welding written by Robert W. Messler, Jr. and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-09-26 with total page 685 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An advanced yet accessible treatment of the welding process and its underlying science. Despite the critically important role welding plays in nearly every type of human endeavor, most books on this process either focus on basic technical issues and leave the science out, or vice versa. In Principles of Welding, industry expert and prolific technical speaker Robert W. Messler, Jr. takes an integrated approach--presenting a comprehensive, self-contained treatment of the welding process along with the underlying physics, chemistry, and metallurgy of weld formation. Promising to become the standard text and reference in the field, this book provides an unprecedented broad coverage of the underlying physics and the mechanics of solidification--including peritectic and eutectic reactions--and emphasizes material continuity and bonding as a way to create a joint between materials of the same general class. The author supplements the book with hundreds of tables and illustrations, and correlates the science to welding practices in the real world. Principles of Welding departs from existing books with its clear, unambiguous presentation, which is easily grasped even by undergraduate students, yet given at the advanced level required by experienced engineers.

Book excerpt: The Guide Manual for Bridge Element Inspection builds on the element-level condition assessment methods developed in the AASHTO Guide for Commonly Recognized Structural Elements, which it replaces. Improvements have been made to fully capture the condition of the elements by reconfiguring the element language to utilize multiple distress paths within the defined condition states. The multi-path distress language provides the means to fully incorporate all possible defects within the overall condition assessment of the element. The overall condition of an element can be utilized in this aggregate form, or broken down into specific defects present as desired by the agency for Bridge Management System (BMS) use. The Bridge Element Inspection Manual provides a comprehensive set of bridge elements that is designed to be flexible in nature to satisfy the needs of all agencies. The complete set of elements capture the components necessary for an agency to manage all aspects of the bridge inventory utilizing the full capability of a BMS -- Publisher's website.
