Creator:: Koester, Carl C.
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:: 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...

Creator:: Barker, Laura
Abstract:: Large numbers of reinforced concrete deck girder (RCDG) bridges were built during the highway infrastructure boom of the 1950's. The advent of standardized deformed steel reinforcing bars during this time allowed for straight bar terminations in flexural tension regions. Designers of the time terminated reinforcing bars where they were no...

Creator:: Amneus, Deanna
Abstract:: Many older reinforced concrete deck girder (RCDG) bridges contain straight bar terminations of flexural reinforcement. Common bridge design practice of the 1950s did not consider the additional demands on the terminated bars from shear and flexure. Moreover, more stringent code specifications and heavier permit trucks contribute to the insufficient ratings...

Creator:: Goodall, Joshua K.
Abstract:: Large numbers of vintage reinforced concrete deck-girder bridges remain in the national bridge inventory. Many of these exhibit diagonal cracking and other distress. Due to the design practices of the time, it is common to observe cracks at locations where flexural reinforcing steel is terminated along the span. The presence...
