One issue to consider while designing and constructing steel girders reinforced with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) plates in bridges is debonding failure. Previous studies showed that the parameters such as characteristics of material, load, adhesive, CFRP have an effect on failure probability girder, which represented by reliability index. Therefore, this study analyzes indices streng...

16. Abstract Four scale microconcrete model bridges were tested. Experimental variables included span, skew angle, stiffness, location and number of diaphragms. Service load level behavior was studied under static, cyclic and impact loads with successive removal of diaphragms. Behavior at overload and ultimate load conditions was documented from ultimate static and impact load tests. Characteri...

Based on the experimental test results of authors, this investigation is concerned with finite element analysis to examine and compare load values failure modes authors’ results. This research was conducted using Abaqus software. The work included fabrication twelve plate girders honeycomb flat web corrugation patterns, which were then tested under a single concentrated at midspan. According di...
