Abstract:
On May 24, 1983 Americans celebrated the Centennial of the Brooklyn Bridge's opening. On that day in New York City over two million people joined in the Rededication Day activities; millions more watched the fireworks display on television. During the months preceding Rededication Day, numerous magazines had featured articles on the Bridge; Ken Burns' award-winning documentary was broadcast on PBS; New York City museums opened exhibitions on the Bridge; the New York Academy of Sciences held a Bridge symposium; new artistic works with the Bridge as their subject were created; and a collection of Centennial souvenirs was produced. Rededication Day itself marked only the beginning of six months of Bridge-related activities. During 1983, the Brooklyn Bridge was as much “in the air” as it was in the East River. This kind of interest and affection can be described in terms applied to similar phenomena: Brooklyn Bridgephilia; Brooklyn Bridge Fever; Brooklyn Bridgemania.

Abstract:
John Augustus Roebling, a classically educated civil engineer and young Hegelian, immigrated to America in 1831 in search of freedom from a repressive political system that afforded him no opportunity for advancement. Arriving in the midst of the American market revolution, his dream of establishing an agrarian farming colony changed in response to societal transformations resulting from mechanization and the rise of industry. Within forty years, Roebling achieved fame as a canal engineer and bridge designer while establishing the American wire rope industry. Without Roebling's innovation in wire-rope, modern suspension bridges, high-rise elevators, construction cranes, and cable cars would not have been possible. Yet historians have virtually ignored Roebling and other civil engineers, entrepreneurs, and inventors who built America's infrastructure. Known primarily, if at all, as the designer of the Brooklyn Bridge, Roebling is an enlightening study of Old World education and training used in the New World.

Abstract:
As subway ridership around the world increases the typology has an opportunity to play an increasingly important role in the daily routine of urban dwellers. Underground spaces pose unique psychological and physiological stresses on occupants; therefore, an opportunity exists to rethink the subway station interior to respond to experiential and existential conditions of the traveler. This practicum aims to address these issues by redesigning an existing subway station that responds to convergence of picnolepsy, non-place, and biophilic design methodologies. Project goals include a design that focuses on experiential and emotional qualities to create a more exciting and comfortable space without impeding existing efficiencies.

The study discussed Joseph Stella’s three artworks between 1912 and 1922, “Battle of Lights, Coney Island, Mardi Gras”, “Brooklyn Bridge” and “The Voice of the City of New York Interpreted”. Italian-born American artist Joseph Stella attempted various painting styles and themes in his life time. Stella’s immigrant experience made his paintings express the cultural integration, including Italian and American visual cultures, on the one hand. On the other hand, Stella regarded the industrial civilization which he admired a lot and made introspection deeply as a new religion. Finally, Walt Whitman’s verse also had a great effect on Stella’s paintings, because his paintings could be found that Stella not only depicted the development of New York City but also searched and recorded his own identity.

Abstract:
<p>The Brooklyn Bridge is a National Historic Landmark and a New York City Landmark that has been in use for over 137 years. This is one of the most pictured bridge structures in the world, while being used as a critical and vital part of the infrastructure carrying over 105,000 vehicles per day. This paper addresses the engineering challenges/solutions related to the most current rehabilitation work being performed.</p><p>Contract 6 (2009 to 2017) represents a $650 million investment into the bridge to maintain it in a State of Good Repair. Work included deck replacement using accelerated bridge construction techniques and complete painting and steel repairs of the main span. A high-level traffic study and traffic simulations were developed to evaluate differing closure scenarios and their impacts on user costs and the traveling public.</p><p>Contract 6A (2017 to 2019) represents a $25 million investment in maintaining the historic and aesthetic integrity of the Brooklyn Bridge structures. Approximately, 30,000 SF of granite stone cladding will be replaced under this contract.</p><p>Contract 7 represents a $300 million investment that will address the rehabilitation of the historic arches on both sides of the main span and strengthening of the Towers. Construction is expected to begin in 2019.</p><p>Contract 8 represents a $250 million investment. It is in the planning phase and will address a new promenade enhancement (widening) over the Brooklyn Bridge.</p><p>This paper discusses how these engineering challenges were faced and resolved.</p>

Abstract:
<p>As a world city, New York is famous for many reasons; as a large city located primarily on islands at a complex of rivers, bays, and tidal straits, it has long depended on structural engineering for viability. Prominent structures include underwater vehicular and rail tunnels, bridges of every structural type, and aqueducts. Ten different buildings have held the world record for height, two arch bridges have held the world record for span, and four different suspension bridges have held the world record for their main span. With a multitude of successful businesses and the physical constraints of the geography, the motivation for technical innovation were present, and engineers were ready for the challenges.</p><p>These structures have generally not been built because they would break records, but rather because they served a purpose. For example, the Brooklyn Bridge, with a center span fiIy percent longer than the second- longest at the time of its construction, was built because ferries were the only transportation between New York and Brooklyn, then the first and third largest cities in the country. There is a close correlation, decade by decade and beginning in the 1880s, between what was feasible in terms of structural engineering and what has been built to enable the city to grow and prosper. This paper will examine that correlation and engineers’ role in the city’s evolution.</p>

Abstract:
This graduate architecture studio investigates a climate change mitigation strategy that scales down and localizes waste collection, situating it within the urban fabric at the scale of New York City community districts. In these proposals, infrastructural programming is combined with public amenities that take advantage of the byproducts ofthe waste treatment process. This mixed-use infrastructure proposes a model for urban densification that makes more strategic use of transportation infrastructure and urban land use by interweaving green manufacturing and industry within urban community environments. The project assumes the incorporation of the latest filtration technologies developed in places like Japan, Sweden and Denmark that are able to filter 95-99% of different types of emissions. This makes it possible to situate these facilities in dense urban environments where they can locally capture waste streams where they are generated. It is understood that the long-term solution to waste management is the elimination of the use of fossil fuels and the complete recycling of waste. Localizing the waste to energy facility eliminates the pollution issues associated with transportation. Waste to energy puts garbage to good use by converting it to steam for electricity production and has been proven to be environmentally preferable to landfill, which are known for their greenhouse gas emissions. Combining infrastructure with public programming that can take advantage of the heat and energy byproducts of the WTE process has the added benefit of bringing visibility to the issue of waste. When neighborhoods are constrained to effectively live with their waste they are incentivized to process it as efficiently as they can. The test sites for the project were waterfront locations chosen to align with proposed East River Ferry stops to bring more visibility and efficiency to the proposed system of localized waste processing. Site One is situated on Pier 36 in Manhattan and includes the Lower East Side and Chinatown. Site Two is adjacent to the Brooklyn Navy Yard, which includes the Hasidic community as well as other Williamsburg residents. This work has been presented at the Center for Architecture in collaboration with the Committee on the Environment (COTE) in a symposium featuring work from Pratt Institute and the New Jersey Institute of Technology. The studio format, combining design and technical faculty, was awarded special commendation by the NAAB in the program’s most recent accreditation. Several of these projects have been recognized in national student award competitions.

Full text
Abstract:
Every day, overweight and excessively heavy vehicles cause damage to roads, bridges, and other vehicle-based infrastructure. To protect the vital transportation infrastructure for the U.S., states have imposed weight limits for commercial and fleet transport vehicles. A common way for enforcing these weight limits is to guide trucks off the road to weigh stations where the vehicles can be weighed using static truck scales. A disadvantage of these dedicated weigh stations is that they take up a substantial amount of space (which is not always available) and time to conduct weighments, as well as cause delays to traffic flow that may impede commerce based on truck transport. A solution to these problems is the use of high-speed weigh-in-motion (WIM) systems that are installed in the road and weigh vehicles as they pass by while maintaining their speed. For jurisdictions to effectively use a WIM system for direct enforcement of weight limits, the system must be evaluated against a recognized standard to establish suitability for its intended application. The vast majority of weighing instruments used for legal metrology purposes (including law enforcement) need to comply with the requirements in NIST Handbook 44 Specifications, Tolerances, and Other Technical Requirements for Weighing and Measuring Devices. However, the NIST Handbook 44 does not (yet) cover WIM systems for direct enforcement. Although state and local jurisdictions use NIST Handbook 44 to certify legal metrological instruments, it does not exclude jurisdictions from using additional technical standards to certify certain instruments. New York City recently certified a WIM system to protect a critical section of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (BQE) by designating it as a pilot project while efforts were made to amend NIST Handbook 44 to include WIM systems for direct enforcement. This publication discusses the main characteristics of WIM systems and how they can be used for direct enforcement. An overview of several alternative documentary standards that can be applied for certification of WIM systems is also provided, with further explanation regarding how the New York City Department of Transportation (NYCDOT) implemented the certification of the WIM system to begin issuing citations to overweight vehicles in an effort to protect the BQE.
