Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) methods can be used to assess in-service steel bridges for problematic conditions caused by factors such as design, manufacturing, fabrication, and the service effects of traffic and corrosion. This report discusses typical NDE test methods used on bridges, including penetrant testing, magnetic particle testing, eddy current testing, ultrasonic testing (including phased array testing), radiography, and acoustic emission testing. NDE operations such as flaw location, characterization, and sizing are covered as well. Results of a national survey of departments of transportation’s (DOTs) use of NDE are presented. A simple procedure for using NDE to address DOT bridge concerns is proposed along with a risk-based inspection approach to scheduling/scoping bridge inspections.

This book was released on 1998 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Additionally, the effects of two types of cracking were examined theoretically. The results indicate that while frequencies of vibration are global parameters, mode shapes are local parameters with the mode shape changes being more sensitive to damage than frequency shifts. Both mode shapes and frequencies of vibrations are capable of detecting major damage to the bridge structure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nondestructive dynamic field testing and structural identification studies on three (2, 20, and 43-year-old) steel-stringer bridges are presented. The bridges were rated by code procedures and by field-calibrated comprehensive 3-D finite-element models developed by structural identification. Experimentally measured and analytically simulated modal flexibilities were correlated with bridge deflections obtained under proof-load level truck-load tests.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This multi-year study was designed to identify and evaluate nondestructive evaluation systems and techniques capable of detecting surface and subsurface cracks, including growing cracks, as small as 0.01 inches in length or depth in bridge structures. The focal point of the study was on fatigue-prone and high-stress critical locations of steel bridge girders. Such locations include those with high concentrations of stress, particularly at steel weldments and sharp corners"--Technical report documentation p.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many books on preliminary studies and research in bridge design as well as basic knowledge on bridge engineering, but most books supply the needs of practicing engineers who may have problems in estimating, designing or constructing suspension bridges. Therefore, this book is intended to serve as a source of information for problems related to bridge engineering including sustainable bridge development, traditional approaches and recent advances in highway bridge traffic loading, aesthetic analysis issues in designing a new bridge, applications of various methods for the dissipation of seismic energy for bridges, new technologies of bridge design as well as structural identification of bridges using non-destructive experimental measurement tests.
