Abstract:
In some long-span prestressed concrete box girder bridges, excessive deflections of main girders are often observed. These unacceptable deflections have detrimental influence on the serviceability and safety of the structures. To better understand and estimate short term and long term deflections for prestressed concrete box girder bridges, pier vertical deformation and its effect on deflections of main girders of Jinghe Bridg is investigated in this paper. Piers in Jinghe Bridge are tall and the difference in height between piers up to 22 m. Analysis indicates that although the short term def

Abstract:
A flared or splayed girder bridge is a structure made up of a concrete slab on girders with linearly varying spacing along the length. For such an irregular bridge, the girder distribution factors in the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications are not applicable. In lieu of using a refined method of analysis, the study at hand proposes a simple approach for computing the dead and live load effect in the girders. To do so, fifteen composite steel girder bridges are analyzed by the finite element method to determine the influence of the girder flaring angle, girder spacing, number of girders, d

For medium- and small-span bridges, the weight of the superstructure in steel–concrete composite girder bridges is lighter than that of a reinforced concrete girder bridge.

This study quantitatively compared the seismic performance of the two types of bridges. Using the theory of probabilistic seismic demand analysis, the seismic vulnerability curves of bridges were derived. To conduct seismic demand analysis for probabilistic analy

Multi-beam box girder bridges have been applied widely throughout the world for many years.

Abstract:
In steel girder bridges, fracture of one girder may occur without noticeable bridge profile changes. It is critical to ensure that the bridge will have adequate capacity to prevent collapse until the next cycle of inspection discovers the damage. It is realized that once one of the bridge girders is fractured, vertical loads need to be distributed through an alternative path to the intact girder(s). In this case, cross-frames can play an important role in transferring the loads and preventing from sudden collapse. This paper investigates the impact of cross-frames on load distribution after a

Bridge safety is one of the most critical concerns among civil engineering fields due to its high importance. The redundancy of bridges was heavily investigated in the literature; however, they were focused on twin girder redundancy cases. Additionally, literatures were scarce in studies that focused on the improvement that should be made to achieve redundancy systems in different AASHTO I-girder types. Thus, this study focused on assessing the additional required number of tendons for different AASHTO I-girder types and spacing between them to achieve the redundancy of I-girder bridges. The a

The torsional rigidity of tub-girder makes them ideal for use in curved bridges. The use on skewed support applications by bridge designers is limited as the behavior is complex and requires the use of advanced analysis tools. In consequence, a simplified analysis method to account for the effects of skew on tub-girder twist rotations and internal torques and how these affect the internal component forces was proposed. The combined effects of skew and curvature are studied by examining the results for analysis with different levels of sophistication for 18 representative bridges. The data gene

Abstract:
&lt;p&gt;Composite girder bridges with corrugated steel webs (CSWs) have been widely applied in China, however, most of these bridges feature main spans below 170 m. The shear stability of CSWs is the primary factor limiting the development of this bridge type toward longer spans. This paper focuses on developing an improved shear strength calculation method for CSWs commonly used in bridges. First, the traditional method for calculating the elastic shear buckling stress of CSWs is revised based on eigenvalue buckling analysis. Subsequently, shear tests on beams with full-scale CSWs and nonlin

Abstract:
Abstract The typical method of preventing corrosion inside the steel upper box girder in a suspension bridge involves the use of synthetic paints. However, in an effort to reduce environmental impact and cost, the suspension portion of the Yeongjong Bridge utilizes dehumidification systems to control humidity and prevent corrosion inside its box girder. Maintaining a uniform humidity distribution at the proper level inside the box girder is critical to the successful prevention of corrosion. In this study, the humidity and the resultant corrosivity inside the box girder of the Yeongjong Bridge

&lt;p&gt;Due to the vertical deflection difference between adjacent main girders of the steel plate girder bridge, the significant out-of-plane distortion occurs in the web gap regions, fatigue cracks are prone to occur under repeated loads. In this paper, digital fatigue tests are carried out to study the fatigue crack propagation at the stiffener web gap, taking one steel plate girder bridge as the engineering background. The local sub-model of the web gap was established to simulate the welding and fatigue crack propagation of the web gap weld. Research has shown that residual stress will s

Abstract:
A range of designs using normalweight and lightweight concrete for prestressed concrete bridge girders was performed using commercial bridge design software. Combinations of concrete types considered include a normalweight deck on normalweight girders, a lightweight deck on lightweight girders, a lightweight deck on normalweight girders, and a normalweight deck on lightweight girders. The effect of using lightweight concrete in barrier rails was examined briefly. Results of the designs are compared to demonstrate the differences in span capacity, number of strands required, required release st

Abstract:
&lt;p&gt;The design of skewed I-girder steel bridges is common throughout the country. Such bridges have been fabricated and constructed and have generally performed well. Where issues have been encountered, they were primarily related to bridge construction and, quite often to the torsional behavior of the severely skewed bridge superstructure. Until recently, there have been few analysis and design guidelines available to the structural designer on the construction engineering of the skewed I-girder bridges.

Abstract:
This research experimentally and numerically evaluated the reserve strength of girder bridges due to bridge rail load shedding. The investigation included: (1) performing non-destructive field testing on two steel girder bridges and one prestressed concrete girder bridge, (2) developing validated finite element numerical models, and (3) performing parametric numerical investigations using the validated numerical modeling approach. Measured data indicated that intact, integral, reinforced concrete rails participate in carrying live load. Research results culminated in recommendations to evaluat

Abstract:
As part of an inspection, bridge inspectors assign condition ratings to the main components of a bridge’s structural system and identify any defects that they observe. Condition ratings are necessarily somewhat subjective, as they are influenced by the experience of the inspectors. In the current work, procedures were developed for making inferences on the reliability of reinforced concrete girders with defects at both the cross section and the girder level. The Bayesian network (BN) tools constructed in this work use simple structural m echanics to model the capacity of girders. By using expe

Abstract:
Bridge elements known to develop damage over time are individual continuity joints connecting girders. Replacing damaged joints is an expensive and invasive process and a need exists to design a less invasive repair method. This study focused on evaluating an encapsulation repair method for continuity joints that would not require extensive demolition of the bridge deck to implement and could potentially be constructed without bridge closure. Approximately half scale connected bridge girder specimens were constructed and purposely damaged to create similar crack patterns to those seen in bridg

Abstract:
Corrosion in the girders of steel girder bridges often occurs due to the deicing salts, water, and other debris that leak through the deck joints into the web and bottom flange at the girder ends. Corrosion causes loss of cross-sectional area leading to a reduction in section properties of the member, which eventually results in a reduction in structural resistance against shear and bearing. In this study, seven full-scale tests were performed on decommissioned steel girders acquired from bridges scheduled for demolition in Indiana. Two of the four girders had severe corrosion with cracks and
