Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper describes the calculation of load and resistance factors for the Ontario Highway Bridge Design code (OHBDC) 1991 edition. The work involved the development of load and resistance models, the selection of the reliability analysis method, and the calculation of the reliability indices. The statistical models for load and resistance are reviewed. The considered load components include dead load, live load, and dynamic load. Resistance models are developed for girder bridges (steel, reinforced concrete, and prestressed concrete). A reliability analysis is performed for selected representative structures. Reliability indices are calculated using an iterative procedure. The calculations are performed for bridge girders designed using OHBDC 1983 edition. The resulting reliability indices are between 3 and 4 for steel girders and reinforced concrete T-beams, and between 3.5 and 5 for prestressed concrete girders. Lower values are observed for shorter spans (up to 30-40 m). The acceptance criterion in the selection of load and risistance factors is closeness to the target reliability level. The analysis confirmed the need to increase the design live load for shorter spans. Partial resistance factors are considered for steel and concrete. the criteria for the evaluation of existing bridges are based on the reliability analysis and economic considerations.

Book Synopsis Methods for Increasing Live Load Capacity of Existing Highway Bridges by : Roger A. Dorton
Download or read book Methods for Increasing Live Load Capacity of Existing Highway Bridges written by Roger A. Dorton and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1997 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to state department of transportation bridge design and structural engineers, bridge consultants, and others involved in applied and research methods for increasing the live load capacity of existing highway bridges. The synthesis describes the current state of the practice for the various methods used to increase the live load capacity of existing highway bridges. This is done predominantly for bridges in the short- to medium-span range. Information on the more common bridge material types is presented. There is an emphasis on superstructure rather than substructure strengthening.

Book Synopsis Calibration of Deterministic Parameters: Reassessment of Offshore Platforms in the Arabian Gulf by : Hassan Zaghloul

This book was released on 2011-04-18 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arabian Gulf oil and gas production reserves have made it one of the world's strategic producers since the early 1960s, with many of the existing platforms stretched beyond their original design life. Advances in drilling technology and reservoir assessments have extended the requirement for the service life of those existing platforms even further. Extension of the life span of an existing platform requires satisfactory reassessment of its various structural components, including piled foundations. The American Petroleum Institute Recommended Practice 2A (API RP2A) is commonly used in the Arabian Gulf for reassessment of existing platforms. The API guidelines have been developed for conditions in the Gulf of Mexico, the waters off Alaska and the Pacific and Atlantic seaboards of the USA. However, the Arabian Gulf conditions are fundamentally different to those encountered in US waters. Hence, there is a need to develop guidelines for reassessment of existing offshore structures to account for the specific conditions of the Arabian Gulf. This thesis performs statistical analyses on databases collected during this research from existing platforms to calibrate relevant load and resistance factors for the required guidelines. The developed guidelines are based on established approaches used in developing international codes and standards such as API RP2A-LRFD. The outcome of this research revolves around the following three main issues: 1. Calibration of resistance factors for axial capacity of piles driven in the carbonate soils 2. Development of open area live loads (OALL) on offshore platforms 3. Effect of extreme storm conditions on the reliability of existing platforms in the Arabian Gulf The outcomes of this research are expected to have a profound influence onreassessment of existing platforms in the Arabian Gulf.
Book Synopsis Structural Engineering and Geomechanics - Volume 1 by : Sashi K. Kunnath
Download or read book Structural Engineering and Geomechanics - Volume 1 written by Sashi K. Kunnath and published by EOLSS Publications. This book was released on 2020-06-22 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An understanding of dynamic effects on structures is critical to minimize losses from earthquakes and other hazards. These three books provide an overview of essential topics in structural and geotechnical engineering with an additional focus on related topics in earthquake engineering to enable readers gain such an understanding. One of the ultimate objectives of these books is to provide readers with insights into seismic analysis and design. However, in order to accomplish that objective, background material on structural and geotechnical engineering is necessary. Hence the first two sections of the book provide this background material followed by selected topics in earthquake engineering. The material is organized into three major parts. The first section covers topics in structural engineering. Beginning with fundamental mechanics of materials, the book includes chapters on linear and nonlinear analysis as well as topics on modeling of structures from different perspectives. In addition to traditional design of structural systems, introductions to important concepts in structural reliability and structural stability are discussed. Also covered are subjects of recent interest, viz., blast and impact effects on structures as well as the use of fiber reinforced polymer composites in structural applications. Given the growing interest in urban renewal, an interesting chapter on restoration of historic cities is also included. The second part of the book covers topics in geotechnical engineering, covering both shallow and deep foundations and issues and procedures for geotechnical modeling. The final part of the book focuses on earthquake engineering with emphasis on both structures and foundations. Here again, the material covered includes both traditional seismic design and innovative seismic protection. And more importantly, concepts in modeling for seismic analysis are highlighted.

Book excerpt: The paper summarizes the calculation of load and resistance factors for the Ontario Highway Bridge Design Code (OHBDC) 1990 edition. The work involved the development of load and resistance models, selection of the reliability analysis method and calculation of the reliability indices. The statistical data on load and resistance is reviewed. Load models are developed for live load and dynamic load. Resistance models are developed for girder bridges (steel, reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete). On the basis of the reliability indices, partial resistance factors are recommended: 0.9 for structural steel and reinforcing steel, 0.95 for prestressing steel, and 0.75 for concrete. For the covering abstract of the Conference see IRRD Abstract no. 807839.
