This book was released on 1978 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A catalog of bridge deficiencies is developed based on the inspection of over 140 deficient bridges located in Illinois, Florida, Pennsylvania, California, and Tennessee. A classification of structure types is developed for concrete, steel and timber bridges. Deficiencies are related to the structure classification system and a hierarchy of the most common deficiencies established. Techniques presently utilized by state highway departments to correct deficiences are described and evaluated. Several innovative techniques for increasing the load carrying capacity are also described. Utilizing these techniques, increased capacity values are developed. Cost factors are also analyzed and graphic presentations which show the relative merit of each system are presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studied by a team of experts in the fields of history, bridge engineering, architecture, and computer analysis were 21 old truss bridges of historical importance located in Virginia. These old bridges are narrow and have low load-carrying capacities, making them targets for replacement and destruction. On a case-by-case basis, the bridges were investigated as to their potentials for strengthening and widening for normal vehicular use. Also explored were non-vehicular uses as for conversion into craft centers, museums, restaurants, housing, bicycle structures, and the like, at either the present site or a new one. The wide array of possibilities for continued use of the old bridges described in this report show that old bridges do indeed have much useful life left in them and it is not always necessary that they be demolished.
