  • Influence of Uncertainties in Terrestrial Laser Scanning on Structural Reliability and Bridge Load Rating

    Creator:
    Loving, Carly K.
    Abstract:
    To ensure the safety of the nation’s bridges, the National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS) require all bridges to undergo routine load rating analyses to assess their structural capacity. Accurate geometric information for each structure is necessary for load rating analyses. This information is typically ascertained from as-built plans. Still, when...

  • The Fundamental Behavior of Timber-Concrete Composite Floors in Fire

    Creator:
    Shephard, Annabel B.
    Abstract:
    Timber-concrete composite (TCC) floors have improved strength and stiffness when compared to timber-only floors, allowing for longer spans in buildings and improved life safety. However, North America does not have codes and standards that recognize TCC floors, particularly the improved life safety performance of these floors in fire. Therefore, alternate...

  • Performance of High-Strength Steel Reinforcement in Shear Friction Applications

    Creator:
    Matus Casanova, Nicolas A.
    Abstract:
    The use of high strength steel reinforcement has the potential to provide economic and constructability benefits when used in reinforced concrete structures. However, more research is needed to justify and confidently allow its use. Current design provisions limit the nominal yield strength of reinforcing steel bars to 60 ksi (420...
