Book Description
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.

Bond Characteristics of Overlays Placed Over Bridge Decks Sealed with HMWM Or Epoxy

Category : Concrete bridges
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
The reported research examines the bond strength between overlays placed over bridge decks which are sealed with epoxy resin or high molecular weight methacrylate (HMWM) sealers. The study involved field and laboratory experimental testing of cores under direct shear, Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) interfacial specimens, beams, and a 1/3-scale bridge subassembly of a typical steel stringer bridge. Micro-silica modified concrete, latex modified concrete, and superplasticized dense concrete overlays were used in this study. The experimental data were complemented with finite element studies. Despite often stark variations in the values of bond strength obtained from different testing methods, the data universally suggest that the use of a sealer at the interface can reduce the available bond strength.

Pages : 722
Book Description
This second edition of Finite Element Analysis and Design of Steel and Steel-Concrete Composite Bridges is brought fully up-to-date and provides structural engineers, academics, practitioners, and researchers with a detailed, robust, and comprehensive combined finite modeling and design approach. The book's eight chapters begin with an overview of the various forms of modern steel and steel-concrete composite bridges, current design codes (American, British, and Eurocodes), nonlinear material behavior of the bridge components, and applied loads and stability of steel and steel-concrete composite bridges. This is followed by self-contained chapters concerning design examples of steel and steel-concrete composite bridge components as well as finite element modeling of the bridges and their components. The final chapter focuses on finite element analysis and the design of composite highway bridges with profiled steel sheeting. This volume will serve as a valuable reference source addressing the issues, problems, challenges, and questions on how to enhance the design of steel and steel-concrete composite bridges, including highway bridges with profiled steel sheeting, using finite element modeling techniques. - Provides all necessary information to understand relevant terminologies and finite element modeling for steel and composite bridges - Discusses new designs and materials used in highway and railway bridge - Illustrates how to relate the design guidelines and finite element modeling based on internal forces and nominal stresses - Explains what should be the consistent approach when developing nonlinear finite element analysis for steel and composite bridges - Contains extensive case studies on combining finite element analysis with design for steel and steel-concrete composite bridges, including highway bridges with profiled steel sheeting
