Book Underwater Bridge Maintenance and Repair

Download or read book Underwater Bridge Maintenance and Repair written by Ronald L. Purvis and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis on underwater bridge maintenance and repair will be of special interest to bridge maintenance engineers and others involved with repair of bridge elements located below the waterline and in the splash zone. Procedures for correctly assessing the problem and engineering the repair within the constraints of individual situations, including bridge scour considerations, are described. Protection, maintenance, and repair of concrete, masonry, steel, and timber bridge foundation elements are also addressed. This synthesis updates the maintenance and repair portion of NCHRP Synthesis 88: Underwater Inspection and Repair of Bridge Substructures. This report of the Transportation Research Board identifies and describes current practices and innovative repair techniques for problems associated with settlement, scour, and deterioration of underwater bridge elements. The synthesis considers various types of protection, maintenance, and repair work on bridge substructures, both underwater and in the splash zone, and includes techniques, and their effectiveness. Current research in the topic area and critical research needs are also identified. A limited bibliography is also provided.

Book Risk Based Bridge Engineering

Download or read book Risk Based Bridge Engineering written by Khaled Mahmoud and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Risk-based engineering is essential for the efficient asset management and safe operation of bridges. A risk-based asset management strategy couples risk management, standard work, reliability-based inspection and structural analysis, and condition-based maintenance to properly apply resources based on process criticality. This ensures that proper controls are put in place and reliability analysis is used to ensure continuous improvement. An effective risk-based management system includes an enterprise asset management or resource solution that properly catalogues asset attribute data, a functional hierarchy, criticality analysis, risk and failure analysis, control plans, reliability analysis and continuous improvement. Such efforts include periodic inspections, condition evaluations and prioritizing repairs accordingly. This book contains select papers that were presented at the 10th New York City Bridge Conference, held on August 26-27, 2019. The volume is a valuable contribution to the state-of-the-art in bridge engineering.
