Book Analysis and Design of Bridges

Download or read book Analysis and Design of Bridges written by C. Yilmaz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on Analysis and Design of Bridges held at ~e§me, lzmir, Turkey from 28 June 1982 to 9 July 1982 are contained in the present volume. The Advanced Study Institute was attended by 37 lecturers and participants from 10 different countries. The Organizing Committee consisted of Professors P. Gtilkan, A. C. Scordelis, S. T. Wasti and 9. Yl. lmaz. The guidelines set by NATO for the Advanced Study Institute require it to serve not only as an efficient forum for the dissemination of available advanced knowledge to a selected group of qualified people but also as a platform for the exploration of future research possibilities in the scientific or engineering areas concerned. The main topics covered by the present Advanced Study Institute were the mathematical modelling of bridges for better analysis and the scientific assessment of bridge behaviour for the introduction of improved design procedures. It has been our observation that as a result of the range and depth of the lectures presented and the many informal discussions that took place, ideas became fissile, the stimulus never flagged and many gaps in the engineering knowledge of the participants were "bridged". Here we particularly wish to mention that valuable informal presenta tions of research work were made during the course of the Institute by Drs. Friedrich, Karaesmen, Lamas and Parker.

Book Load Distribution and Ultimate Strength of an Adjacent Precast  Prestressed Concrete Box Girder Bridge

Download or read book Load Distribution and Ultimate Strength of an Adjacent Precast Prestressed Concrete Box Girder Bridge written by Tyler W. Stillings and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A decommissioned, adjacent precast, prestressed concrete box girder bridge constructed in 1967 was load tested to destruction in August and September of 2010. The bridge, which crossed Paint Creek approximately nine miles (14.5 km) northeast of Washington Court House, Ohio, consisted of three simple spans, each 47 ft. 10 in. (14.6 m) long. Each span was comprised of nine, 21 in. (533.4 mm) deep by 36 in. (914.4 mm) wide prestressed concrete box beams for a total width of up to 27 ft. 4 in. (8.3 m) with a 15° left-forward skew. Prior to testing, the bridge appeared to be in good condition, with the vast majority of deterioration limited to concrete spalling from the exterior webs of the fascia girders. Of the three spans tested, this thesis details testing and analysis of the first two. In addition to environmental deterioration, the first span was damaged by researchers, whereas no additional damage was done to the second. Loads were applied via three, 350 kip (1557 kN) hydraulic cylinders supported by steel load frames. Test data collected from pressure transducers, wire potentiometers, and strain gauges were compared to predictions from a reinforced concrete modeling program. Beam capacity and bridge distribution factors were compared to values calculated from the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications. Data analysis shows that the response of the bridge was predicted well by the analysis program for both low-level destructive and ultimate destructive loads. It was determined that bridge capacity could be found by summing the capacity of each individual beam, as long as the calculated capacity is reduced for the effects of damage. The bridge maintained its ability to transmit load between girders even after cracking of shear keys, indicating that steel tie rods play a major role in transmitting load from one beam to the next.
