Construction assessment and long-term prediction of prestressed concrete bridges based on monitoring data
The long-term assessment of large civil infrastructures such as prestressed concrete bridges is a challenging task. The real time history related to the phased construction, the influence of the adopted construction method, the characterization of the employed concrete and the environmental conditions are crucial aspects for accurate predictions based on Finite Element Models. Data from long-te...
متن کاملExcessive Long-Time Deflections of Prestressed Box Girders
The segmental prestressed concrete box girder of Koror-Babeldaob (KB) Bridge in Palau, which had the record span of 241 m (791 ft.), presents a striking paradigm of serviceability loss due to excessive multi-decade deflections. The data required for analysis have recently been released and are here exploited to show how the analysis and design could be improved. Erected segmentally in 1977, thi...
متن کاملPrestressed Concrete Girder Bridges Using Large 0.7 Inch Strands
The National Bridge Inventory (NBI) includes more than 600,000 bridges within the United States of Prestressed concrete girder bridges represent one of the most widely used bridge systems. The majority of these girder bridges were constructed using 0.5 and 0.6 inch diameter strands. The main impediments to using larger strand diameters are: 1) bed capacities, 2) lack of structural knowledge reg...
متن کاملHeuristic optimization of prestressed concrete precast pedestrian bridges
This paper deals with the economic optimization of prestressed concrete precast pedestrian bridges typically used in public works construction. These bridges are made of a precast concrete beam that integrates an upper reinforced concrete slab for the pedestrian traffic. The beam has a U-shape cross-section. Typical span lengths range from 20 to 40 m and the width ranges from 3.00 to 6.00 m. Th...
متن کاملPrestressed Concrete Piles
A state of the art presentation on prestressed piling as used throughout the world is discussed in this General Report to the FIP Symposium on Mass-Produced Prestressed Precast Elements in Madrid, Spain, May 1968. Historical information, design data and notes along with manufacturing techniques, installation practices, discussion of problems and failures and a complete bibliography are all cove...
