  • Seismic performance of reinforced concrete bridge columns constructed with grade 80 reinforcement

    Creator:
    Link, Tim B.
    Abstract:
    The research presented in this thesis assessed the use of high strength steel (HSS) reinforcement for use in reinforced concrete (RC) bridge columns. HSS is not currently allowed in reinforced concrete bridge columns due to a lack of information on the material characteristics and performance information when used in RC...

  • The role of alumina in the mitigation of alkali-silica reaction

    Creator:
    Warner, Skyler J.
    Abstract:
    The use of fly ash as a supplementary cementitious material (SCM) has increased in the last century due to its various environmental benefits as a recycled product. Within the last 60 years, it has been found that it can be used to effectively control damage induced by Alkali-Silica Reaction. However,...

  • Evaluation of the Performance of Lateral Spread Displacement Empirical Models for Subduction Zone Earthquake Case Histories

    Creator:
    Bunn, Michael
    Abstract:
    Lateral spread is a pervasive type of liquefaction-induced ground failure that occurs on gentle slopes or near free-faces, such as river channels. Resulting horizontal displacements can reach up to several meters, and can be considerably damaging to foundations, bridges, roadways, pipelines, etc. In the 1990s, Bartlett and Youd (1992a, 1995)...

  • Development of performance based test procedures for asphalt mixtures

    Creator:
    Kliewer, Julie E.
    Abstract:
    In 1987, Congress authorized a 5 year $150 million dollar research program called the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP). SHRP was divided into four major areas, including the asphalt research program. The asphalt research program was divided into six major research contracts, one such contract, SHRP-003A was called Performance Related...

  • Evaluating Driver Response to the Onset of Circular Yellow Indication in the Presence of a Following Vehicle at Isolated High-Speed Signalized Intersections

    Creator:
    Mohammed, Hameed A.
    Abstract:
    Dilemma zones on the approach to high-speed signalized intersections have been identified as a safety problem that can contribute to rear–end and right–angle crashes. However, in situations when a pair of vehicles is caught in the dilemma zone, it is not well understood how the following vehicle’s headway and classification...

  • Evaluating safety at Oregon‘s isolated, high-speed, signalized intersections

    Creator:
    Kopper, Neil H.
    Abstract:
    Isolated approaches at signalized intersections with posted speed limits of 45 mph or greater generally experience large numbers of rear-end and angle collisions. A combination of less attentive drivers, high operating speeds, and less than ideal intersection characteristics can result in crash frequencies well above expected rates. A number of...

  • Matrix analysis of structures with semi-rigid connection

    Creator:
    Grant, Joseph Edward
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents a matrix analysis of structures with semirigid connections. The stiffness factor of a connection has been assumed to be a constant as represented by the initial relationship of moment versus rotation. Three cases are considered: Case I - structures with semirigid connections, column width and beam depth...

  • Evaluation of polymer modified asphalt in hot mix pavements

    Creator:
    Ifft, Charles
    Abstract:
    Polymer modified asphalts have recently been the focus of much attention in the U.S. due to claims that polymer additives will lengthen the life of an asphalt pavement. Much of the published research on this topic has been concentrated on the effects of polymer modifiers on binder and mixture properties....
