Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to data obtained from the National Bridge Inventory (NBI), there are over 12,000 reinforced concrete bridges within the state of Iowa on the county road system Of these 12,000 bridges, over 1,900 are considered structurally deficient based on traditional analytical rating methods. Current rating practices are based on the procedures outlined in the Manual for Maintenance Inspection of Bridges which typically underestimates the load carrying capacity of existing bridges. Since the cost of replacing all these bridges is prohibitive, a procedure needs to be incorporated which gives a more accurate assessment of each bridges actual safe load carrying capacity.

Download or read book Guidelines for the Supplementary Load Testing of Bridges written by Institution of Civil Engineers (Great Britain). National Steering Committee for the Load Testing of Bridges and published by Thomas Telford. This book was released on 1998 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridge authorities in the UK are currently facing a large programme of bridge assessment and strengthening. This has been caused, in part, by the necessity of ensuring that the European Union deadline for allowing 40-tonne lorries on to UK roads can be met. Many bridges have failed theoretical assessments and some bridge owners, frustrated by the fact that many failed structures are apparently in good condition and showing no signs of distress, have resorted to load testing their bridges to try to provide additional information. A National Steering Committee for the Load Testing of Bridges was set up to examine the role of bridge load testing as a tool for assisting the assessment process. The National Steering Committee consists of representatives from all major bridge owners including the Highways Agency, the County Surveyors Society, the London Bridges Engineering Group, Railtrack and the British Waterways Board. It also includes representatives from consulting engineers and universities and has the support of the Institution of Civil Engineers. The overall objective of the National Steering Committee was to produce authoritative guidance on load-testing techniques; which could be used by the practising engineer to determine capacities of existing bridges/structures that are safe, prudent and minimize levels of restriction to the transport infrastructure. In June 1995 the committee appointed Rendel Palmer & Tritton in association with Peter Lindsell & Associates and supported by Professors Bakht, Clark and Harding as consultants to carry out a preliminary study of all the available information on bridge load testing. They were to recommend a detailed methodology which would form the basis of a brief to consultants appointed to produce authoritative guidelines for the load testing of bridges. Their report concluded that there is a place for load testing in the evaluation of bridges and other structures and that load testing is a valid tool for bridge managers. They also concluded that there was enough information and experience available to permit safe and effective guidelines to be written. As a result of the preliminary study the National Steering Committee decided to divide the second stage work and restrict the scope of this document to guidelines for supplementary load testing. Work on proof and proving load testing is being carried out by others under the auspices of the Highways Agency. The guidelines contained in this document were not drafted in a prescriptive form, but seek to provide advice on the appropriate use of supplementary load testing as an aid to assessment by calculation. The guidelines have been written to enable engineers to determine: when it is appropriate to consider the use of supplementary load testing; the level of risk, both public safety and economic, associated with load testing; how to plan and carry out a load test including the level of expertise necessary, the appropriate loading methods and the type and quantity of instrumentation required. In addition, the document is intended to be a source of information on load testing, measuring equipment and specialist techniques that engineers can use for reference.

Book Synopsis A Recommended Procedure for Load Testing of Concrete Slab Bridges in New Brunswick by : Dustin Gillett
Download or read book A Recommended Procedure for Load Testing of Concrete Slab Bridges in New Brunswick written by Dustin Gillett and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In New Brunswick, concrete slab bridges often rate poorly in shear during an analytical load rating. However, these bridges typically do not show signs of distress in service. This report explores the use of load testing to refine the load rating capacity of these types of bridges. Drawing from the current state-of-the-art on load testing, a standardized procedure for performing diagnostic load tests on concrete slab bridges in New Brunswick was developed. In addition, a hypothetical diagnostic load test was carried out using finite element simulation of the St. Leonard C.N.R. Overhead (North) bridge in St. Leonard New Brunswick. The hypothetical analysis resulted in a 7% increase at the abutment and 87% increase at the pier in shear live load capacity compared to traditional analysis methods.
Book Synopsis Evaluating Bridge Performance: Load Rating Bridges Without Plans and Experimental Displacement Influence Lines by : Jun Huang
Download or read book Evaluating Bridge Performance: Load Rating Bridges Without Plans and Experimental Displacement Influence Lines written by Jun Huang and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the best alternatives for bridges which need accurate load rating, is through field testing. Presented in this dissertation are two studies on evaluating the performance of bridges based on the results of a diagnostic load test. The first topic is focused on load rating bridges without plans using the results of a diagnostic test. The second topic is focused on utilizing measured displacements from a field test to evaluate the bridge performance.
