Book Seismic Retrofit Measures for Highway Bridges  Robinson  R R   Longinow  A   Chu  K H  Earthquake and structural analysis

Download or read book Seismic Retrofit Measures for Highway Bridges Robinson R R Longinow A Chu K H Earthquake and structural analysis written by and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary objectives of the report are to (1) provide current information on the theory and techniques for seismic analysis of highway bridges, including background material on basic structural dynamics, (2) identify the appropriate criteria necessary to decide if a bridge needs retrofitting and the type of retrofit measures to employ, and (3) demonstrate design details and installation specifications for retrofitting existing highway bridges to minimize earthquake damage. This report is in two volumes: Vol 1 "Earthquake and Structrural Analysis" Vol. 2 "Design Manual". Volume two is a design manual and contains illustrations of various retrofit concepts and specific design procedures which can be applied to existing bridges.

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.
