چکیده
Analyze the major tendency of degradation of concrete bridges through the study of the main causes of their degradation firstly; then analyze the process fold line of their degradation via the aspect of reliability; thirdly, study the law and the characteristics of the degradation of bridges from structural elements; eventually got the entire trend of the degradation of concrete bridges.

OPTIMAL OPERATORS OF GENETIC ALGORITHM IN OPTIMIZING SEGMENTAL PRECAST CONCRETE BRIDGES SUPERSTRUCTURE
Bridges constitute an expensive segment of construction projects; the optimization of their designs will affect their high cost. Segmental precast concrete bridges are one of the most commonly serviced bridges built for mid and long spans. Genetic algorithm is one of the most widely applied meta-heuristic algorithms due to its ability in optimizing cost. Next to providing cost optimization of t...
متن کاملPARAMETRIC STUDY: COST OPTIMIZATION OF NON-PRISMATIC REINFORCED CONCRETE BOX GIRDER BRIDGES WITH DIFFERENT NUMBER OF CELLS
In this paper the parametric study is carried out to investigate the effect of number of cells in optimal cost of the non-prismatic reinforced concrete (RC) box girder bridges. The variables are geometry of cross section, tapered length, concrete strength and reinforcement of the box girders and slabs that are obtained using ECBO metaheuristic algorithm. The design is based on AASHTO standard s...
متن کاملThe Effect of Compressive Strength Reduction of Column Section Expose due to Freezing-Thawing Cycles on the Seismic Performance of Bridges
One of the serious damages of tremendous earthquakes is the damage to bridges as the major components in an arterial road network, as relief operation is interrupted following cutting roads. Regardless of the magnitude and severity of an earthquake, other factors are also important in the strength and seismic performance of concrete bridges. Freezing-thawing cycles are among the factors, whi...
متن کاملProbabilistic Model for Degradation of Concrete Strength of Bridges
This paper investigates the degradation mechanism and tendency of concrete strength of existing bridges. Concrete strength is a time-variant property which usually increases rapidly during the first few years but more slowly as it approaches a nearly uniform level. For bridges sUbjected to environmental attack, the concrete strength can decrease with time. More than 700 concrete strength data h...
متن کاملDevelopment and Practical Application of a Lifetime Management System for Prestressed Concrete Bridges
A practical Bridge Management System has been developed by the author, which is referred to as the Japanese Bridge Management System (J-BMS) for existing concrete bridges. This paper introduces a newly developed bridge management system for the prestressed concrete (PC) bridges (J-BMS PC version) which is integrated with the PC bridge rating expert system (PC-BREX). The proposed system is able ...
