Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The design changes in the 1990s to bridge approaches resulted in approach slabs of about 8m in length supported at one end on the bridge abutment and at the other by a sleeper beam resting on the embankment. These slabs have not performed adequately due primarily to excessive deformation of the foundation and fill soils under the slab and sleeper beam. Survey questionnaires were administered for resident engineers in MoDOT and neighboring states to assess overall performance. Two bridge sites were selected for more detailed study of the deformation mechanisms. Analyses involving modeling using a finite element method program were conducted using soil properties obtained from drilling, sampling and laboratory testing at the study sites. Conclusions and recommendations are in the following categories: initiating programmatic instrumentation and monitoring plans for approach embankments; enhanced drilling, sampling and analysis at locations of future embankments; geosynthetic reinforcement of the embankment; staged construction; separating grading and paving contract; abutment and drainage details; and improved compaction specifications.

This book was released on 2010-09-21 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structural health monitoring (SHM) uses one or more in situ sensing systems placed in or around a structure, providing real-time evaluation of its performance and ultimately preventing structural failure. Although most commonly used in civil engineering, such as in roads, bridges, and dams, SHM is now finding applications in other engineering envir

Download or read book Bridge Design, Assessment and Monitoring written by Airong Chen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridges play important role in modern infrastructural system. This book provides an up-to-date overview of the field of bridge engineering, as well as the recent significant contributions to the process of making rational decisions in bridge design, assessment and monitoring and resources optimization deployment for the purpose of enhancing the welfare of society. Tang specifies the purposes and requirements of the conceptual bridge design, considering bridge types, basic elements, structural systems and load conditions. Cremona and Poulin propose an assessment procedure for existing bridges. Kallias et al. develop a framework for the performance assessment of metallic bridges under atmospheric exposure by integrating coating deterioration and corrosion modelling. Soriano et al. employ a simplified approach to estimate the maximum traffic load effect on a highway bridge and compare the results with other approaches based on on-site weigh-in-motion data. Akiyama et al. propose a method for reliability-based durability design and service life assessment of reinforced concrete deck slab of jetty structures. Chen et al. propose a meso-scale model to simulate the uniform and pitting corrosion of rebar in concrete and to obtain the crack patterns of the concrete with different rebar arrangements. Ruan et al. present a traffic load model for long span multi-pylon cable- stayed bridges. Khuc and Catbas implement a non-target vision- based method for the measurement of both static and dynamic displacements time histories. Finally, Cruz presents the career of the outstanding bridge engineer Edgar Cardoso in the fields of bridge design and experimental analysis. The book serves as a valuable reference to all concerned with bridge structure and infrastructure systems, including students, researchers, engineers, consultants and contractors from all areas sections of bridge engineering. The chapters originally published as a special issue in Structure and Infrastructure Engineering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) walls have been used extensively since the first MSE wall constructed in California in the early 70's. MSE walls proved that they are reliable, cost-effective, aesthetically pleasing, and easily constructible. However, the design criteria of an MSE wall does not always incorporate the comprehensive behavior. A reasonable number of MSE walls do not perform as expected; a few experienced catastrophic failure. The current study was inspired by multiple MSE walls showing excessive movement of the precast panels in Fort Worth and Hurst, Texas. Three most critical MSE walls were selected for this study. The main focus of this research is to 1) periodically monitor the movement of the walls; 2) evaluate the effect of wall movement on earth reinforcement, precast panels, approach slab, copings and traffic barriers; 3) recommend remedial measures on the earth reinforcement to prevent rupture or pullout; 4) perform several field and lab tests on the backfill soil material to check the integrity of the backfill soil; and 5) develop a 3D Finite Element Modeling (FEM) of an MSE wall using ABAQUS software to predict the actual behavior of an MSE wall and investigate the wall failure criteria. Several non-destructive tests were performed on the critical walls. A laser scanner was used to monitor the movement of the precast panels. Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) was used to examine the integrity of the earth reinforcement. A subsurface investigation was conducted using Resistivity Imaging (RI) technique to investigate the presence of groundwater table or perched water zones. Regression and structural reliability analyses were carried out to investigate the effect of significant parameters on wall performance and check the integrity of MSE wall design formulas of FHWA (2009), respectively.
