Book Synopsis Structural Concrete Overlays in Bridge Deck Rehabilitation by : Frieder Seible
Download or read book Structural Concrete Overlays in Bridge Deck Rehabilitation written by Frieder Seible and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Full depth structural concrete overlays are commonly used in bridge deck repair and rehabilitation. Beneficial structural effects, such as increase in structural depth, can only be considered in the design if monolithic action of the overlaid slab can be assured beyond the flexural ultimate limit state of the bridge deck. A three phase experimental program to study the effect of different surface preparations and dowels between the "old" deck and the overlay on the overall bridge deck behavior under service loads (monotonic, cyclic, dynamic), overloads and ultimate limit state loads is presented in this report. The three test phases comprised triplet shear block tests, full scale transverse deck slab panel test (simply supported and continuous) as well as the full scale prototype testing of a 60 ft long highway bridge section (Gepford Overhead) which had been in service for 25 years prior to being repaired and tested under laboratory conditions. A summary of experimental results is presented in this report together with comparative studies and comprehensive design recommendations.

Book Synopsis REPAIR AND REHABILITATION OF STRUCTURES by : R N Krishna
Download or read book REPAIR AND REHABILITATION OF STRUCTURES written by R N Krishna and published by Rajsons Publications Pvt. Ltd.. This book was released on with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PREFACE Repair and Rehabilitation of structures is a topic that has gained considerable importance in the past three decades. Building structures for the residential, commercial and infrastructure applications have to be inspected and maintained in order to fulfil the functional purpose of the particular structure. Especially in the case of infrastructure, wherein the capital costs are high, timely repair and rehabilitation is vital to keep the wheels of a country’s logistics chain in good shape. To ensure such tasks are implemented properly, the correct choice of materials and repair methodology along with proper assessment strategies are needed. Repair and Rehabilitation has therefore become a specialized field of expertise based on the wide variety of construction chemicals now available. Target Readership The book covers in full the topics prescribed for the Master’s Degree students of Engineering. However, given the fact that a vast number of building structures require urgent attention to implement proper repair strategies, a wide gamut of the topics are covered to facilitate a single knowledge source for consultants and academics alike. Book Material The Book starts with a short historical perspective on the type and load path of traditional building structures, materials used and a comparison made with the present. Causes, nature and types of deterioration of structures are discussed at length for structural and non -structural elements. Damage assessment methods, both qualitative and quantitative methods are dealt, starting with visual inspection evaluation procedures, data collection for building structures with particular emphasis on earthquake damaged structures. A comprehensive list of materials with their basic physical and chemical characteristics used in construction-chemical admixtures, coatings, non-metallic FRP reinforcements, anchor fasteners and materials for seismic base isolation are listed. Repair methodology is explained in a detailed manner for various types of buildings structures including underwater repair. Case studies of Repair and Restoration of some buildings and Infrastructure projects including Dams including the Takami and Makubetsu Dams in Japan, Morandi Bridge Italy, and prestressed concrete footbridgein Florida, are enumerated to present the practical assessment and repair methodologies adopted. The special topics covered in this book are Structural health monitoring and Demolition techniques, Repair and restoration of Heritage structures with typical case studies such as the leaning Tower of Pisa etc. Lastly, Research topics in this emerging area of repair are suggested.

Book Synopsis Geopolymers as Sustainable Surface Concrete Repair Materials by : Ghasan Fahim Huseien
Download or read book Geopolymers as Sustainable Surface Concrete Repair Materials written by Ghasan Fahim Huseien and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-08-11 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The progressive deterioration of concrete surface structures is a major concern in construction engineering that requires precise repairing. While a number of repair materials have been developed, geopolymer mortars have been identified as potentially superior and environmentally friendly high-performance construction materials, as they are synthesized by selectively combining waste materials containing alumina and silica compounds which are further activated by a strong alkaline solution. Geopolymers as Sustainable Surface Concrete Repair Materials offers readers insights into the synthesis, properties, benefits and applications of geopolymer-based materials for concrete repair. • Discusses manufacturing and design methods of geopolymer-based materials • Assesses mechanical strength and durability of geopolymer-based materials under different aggressive environmental conditions • Characterizes the microstructure of these materials using XRD, SEM, EDX, TGA, DTG and FTIR measurements • Describes application of geopolymer-based materials as surface repair materials • Compares environmental and cost benefits against those of traditional OPC and commercial repair materials This book is written for researchers and professional engineers working with concrete materials, including civil and materials engineers.
