Flexural steel anchorage performance at diagonal crack locations

Creator:

Triska, Mary Ann

Abstract:

Large numbers of reinforced concrete deck girder bridges that were constructed during the interstate system expansion of the 1950s have developed diagonal cracking in the stems. Compared to the present AASHTO-LRFD standards, the provisions of the 1950s allowed for higher shear stress in the concrete, thus reducing the amount of...

Shear repair methods for conventionally reinforced concrete girders and deep beams

Creator:

Howell, Daniel A.

Abstract:

Many conventionally reinforced concrete deck girder bridges (RCDG) and their intermediate supporting bent caps were designed during the Eisenhower interstate era of the 1950’s with the AASHO design equations at the time, which subsequently place higher demand on the concrete. The referenced components may exhibit diagonal cracking due to the...

Evaluation of the torsion test for determining the shear strength of structural lumber

Creator:

Heck, Leanne Renee

Abstract:

The torsion test was evaluated as a method for determining the shear strength of full-size structural lumber. The evaluation involved an experimental length study, an experimental depth study, and a finite element study. The length study consisted of fifty nominal 2x4 specimens, ten specimens for each length, and ten American...
