Download or read book Innovative and Economical Steel Bridge Design Alternatives for Colorado written by Robert Johnson and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The majority of Simple Made Continuous bridges currently in use are constructed with concrete diaphragms. This report presents the results of numerical analysis and laboratory testing of an alternative simple-made-continuous connection scheme that uses steel diaphragms in lieu of concrete diaphragms. A bridge using steel diaphragms was constructed by the Colorado Department of Transportation in 2005 serves as a basis for the research presented herein. Preliminary analysis discovered potential design flaws in the current bridge connection. This bridge should be inspected and retrofitted based on the results of the physical test. Steel diaphragms are a promising alternative for future SMC bridges and the design guidance provided in this report can be used to create better bridge designs.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research focuses on finding a method for creating cost effective and innovative steel bridges in Colorado. The design method that was discovered to create this cost efficiency was designing the beams as simply supported for non-composite dead loads, beam weight and wet concrete, and then making the beams continuous at the pier for composite dead loads and live loads. This method eliminates the need for an expensive field splice and simplifies design details at the interior support, creating cost savings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovative Bridge Design Handbook: Construction, Rehabilitation, and Maintenance, Second Edition, brings together the essentials of bridge engineering across design, assessment, research and construction. Written by an international group of experts, each chapter is divided into two parts: the first covers design issues, while the second presents current research into the innovative design approaches used across the world. This new edition includes new topics such as foot bridges, new materials in bridge engineering and soil-foundation structure interaction. All chapters have been updated to include the latest concepts in design, construction, and maintenance to reduce project cost, increase structural safety, and maximize durability. Code and standard references have been updated. Completely revised and updated with the latest in bridge engineering and design Provides detailed design procedures for specific bridges with solved examples Presents structural analysis including numerical methods (FEM), dynamics, risk and reliability, and innovative structural typologies
