Abstract:: Article 1: Behavior of Epoxy Injected Diagonally Cracked Full-Scale CRC Deck-Girders. Many cast-in place reinforced concrete deck-girder bridges (RCDG) remain in the national inventory and exhibit diagonal cracking. Epoxy injection has been in use for several decades as a method for sealing diagonal cracks, but the effects on girder behavior...

Abstract:: Capacity of transverse 1950's vintage reinforced concrete deck girder bridge bent caps with large straight bar anchorages were investigated and evaluated. Eleven subassemblage column specimens were examined with different anchorage lengths, bar groupings, amount of transverse steel, and externally applied axial force. Test results showed an increase in anchorage capacity...

Creator:: Carlton, Adam K.
Abstract:: In recent years confinement requirements for concrete columns have increased in seismic regions. Steel jackets are one way to confine reinforced concrete columns. The increased confinement provides additional strength and ductility for the columns during seismic events. For reinforced concrete columns with steel jackets, there are different section properties in...

Abstract:: Current ACI design provisions for shear in reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with externally bonded carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) U-wraps may not adequately account for the effect of scale. This paper describes tests of 6 geometrically scaled beams to identify possible scale effects of such beams. Results indicated that effective...

Creator:: Mitchell, Mikal Maxwell
Abstract:: Long-term durability of surface-bonded carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) U-wraps for shear strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) bridge members remains uncertain due to the limited field experience with these materials. This paper provides experimental results from the testing of full-scale RC bridge girder specimens after exposure to prolonged freeze-thaw cycling. CFRP...
