Abstract:

Structural health monitoring (SHM) has gained considerable attention as a tool for monitoring the health of civil infrastructure. For bridge infrastructure, previous methods have focused on the detection of localized damage through modal parameters extracted from the longitudinal direction of the structure. This paper investigates a new damage detection method based on the change in the first vertical mode extracted from the transverse direction of the bridge. The mode is determined through application of modal curve fitting to frequency response functions (FRFs) that are formed using vertical response data obtained in the direction perpendicular to the bridge’s longitudinal axis. Using this method, both local damage and global damage in the bridge reveal themselves as having a localized effect on the bridge response. Furthermore, damage is revealed in such a way that it enables differentiation of the damage types. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the method, modal parameters were extracted from acceleration data obtained from a finite element model of a full bridge. Analysis of the modal parameters showed that the proposed approach could not only detect both local and global bridge damage, but could also differentiate between damage types using only one mode shape. The proposed method was compared to a previously developed SHM method.

Abstract:

Present approaches for assessing bridge redundancy are mainly based on nonlinear finite element (FE) analysis. Unfortunately, the real behavior of bridges in the nonlinear range is difficult to evaluate and a sound basis for the nonlinear FE analysis is not available. In addition, a nonlinear FE analysis is not feasible for practitioners to use. To tackle this problem, a new simplified approach based on linear FE analysis and field load testing is introduced in this paper to address the particular structural feature and topology of adjacent precast concrete box-beam bridges for the assessment of structural redundancy. The approach was first experimentally analyzed on a model bridge and then validated by a case study. The approach agrees well with the existing recognized method while reducing the computation complexity and improving the reliability. The analysis reveals that the level of redundancy of the bridge in the case study does not meet the recommended standard, indicating that the system factor recommended by the current bridge evaluation code for this bridge is inappropriate if considering the field condition. Further research on the redundancy level of this type of bridges is consequently recommended.

Abstract:

Analyses of catastrophic collapse of some adjacent precast concrete box beam bridges reveal the fact that the hinge joints between the adjacent beams were not sufficiently designed. The joint failure caused by deterioration is the result of system reliability deficiency of this type of bridges. To understand the system performance of the bridges, the redundancy and robustness of a bridge model with a scale of 1 ∶ 2, based on the prototype design drawings for 10-meter adjacent box beam bridges in China, were assessed through a system safety evaluation procedure. The result confirmed the assumption that the redundancy and robustness of certain adjacent precast concrete beam bridges did not meet the pertinent requirements proposed in National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) reports 406, 458, and 776 as a result of hinge joint failure. To address the current design deficiencies, a system factor is recommended in this paper to calculate the nominal resistance that reflects the level of redundancy of this type of bridges. In addition, a new framework is proposed to address the particular structural feature and topology of adjacent precast concrete beam bridges for the assessment of structural redundancy and robustness, which can reduce the computation complexity compared to existing approaches. The full-range load test performed in this research verified the previous research results on bridge system safety that were mainly based on theoretical analysis and simulations.

Abstract:

As part of a multistate research program on use of high-performance concrete (HPC) in highway bridges, a bridge originally designed as a three-span adjacent box girder bridge was converted to a single-span bridge by using 70-MPa HPC and 15-mm strands. As part of the research, a test beam was constructed and tested. Instruments placed in the beam before casting were used to measure transfer length, which was found to be approximately 1.22 m, larger than the 50-bar diameters usually used in the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Standard Specifications but consistent with recent studies. After the beam concrete reached the required compressive strength, it was tested to destruction. The beam was able to resist the required AASHTO ultimate moment without failure. It was found that the AASHTO cracking load was conservative for this beam, mostly because the measured modulus of rupture greatly exceeded the value assumed in the AASHTO specifications. The behavior of the beam was successfully predicted using a section analysis.

Abstract:

This paper presents a case of subway station construction under an existing prestressed concrete bridge with a three-span continuous beam located at the intersection of the 3rd Ring Road, Beijing. The Huayuan Subway Station of line 6, constructed crossing between #7 and the #8 piers of the bridge by the shallow tunneling method, is approximately perpendicular to the existing Huayuan Bridge. The minimum horizontal distance between the pile foundation and the subway station is only 0.08 m. The “Pile-Beam-Arc” construction sequence was used to ensure the safety of both the subway station and the bridge. Moreover, a series of reinforcement measures were adopted to safeguard the project, including deep grouting reinforcement surrounding the pile foundation from ground surface, temporary inverted arch in the middle of No. 5 drift, and the lateral steel support. Even though some cracks were observed on the bridge deck surface by the on-site deformation monitoring, the results were still within the proposed control standard. To prevent the further development of the cracks, jacking protection measure and bonded steel constructed under the box girder were performed. The related measures proposed in this research can provide useful references for future similar projects.

Abstract:

The object of this paper is to share the experience gained from a 4-year rehabilitation program on a section of the F. G. Gardiner Expressway in Toronto. The paper describes the latex-modified shotcrete repairs at locations of rusting strands at beam soffits and the conversion of original simply supported spans into continuous beams with the resulting elimination of nearly three fourths of the expansion joints. The benefits of continuity, reduction of expansion joints, new reinforced deck slab, and new drainage system are discussed and essential cost figures are provided. Key words: concrete, prestressed, bridge, rehabilitation, expressway, transportation, urban, shotcrete, continuity, expansion joint, composite deck, epoxied dowels, drainage.

Abstract:

The longitudinal joints on adjacent precast, prestressed box beams used in bridge construction are vulnerable to cracking. These cracks provide a direct path for water and deleterious agents to enter the structural system, causing corrosion of the embedded steel bars and tendons. To avoid significant maintenance costs, safety concerns, or both, an innovative longitudinal joint between two adjacent box beams was designed in the current study. This joint is 6½ in. wide with roughened surfaces, filled with shrinkage compensating concrete and reinforced by steel bars. The joint was evaluated on a small-scale basis and satisfactory performance was obtained in resisting early-age cracks. In the current paper, the joint design is further evaluated through experiments on a 31 ft long specimen during the joint’s early age, and when it is subjected to multiple levels of cyclic loads. A finite element (FE) model that is capable of simulating the early-age concrete hardening was also developed and validated against the experimental data. The early-age, time-dependent stress development in the joint and at the interface of the joint and box beam was investigated using the FE model. Based on the results of laboratory tests and FE simulations, the innovative joint was found to remain crack free without the utilization of a shear key or transverse post-tensioning. The “compression-dominate” joint created by the expansive joint material and transverse reinforcing bars across the interface is expected to address the issues associated with early age, while ensuring the long-term durability and performance of box-beam bridges.
