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...

Experimental and Analytical Studies of Large-Scale Pile Caps

Creator:

Al-Sakin, Yasmeen

Abstract:

Pile caps are structural elements used to transfer loads from columns to a group of piles, which transfer them to stronger soil layers. Pile cap with horizontal distance between the column and piles less than twice its effective depth is categorized as "deep," where significant nonlinear strain distribution occurs through...
