Analysis of diagonally cracked conventionally reinforced concrete girders in the service load range

Creator:: Robelo, Melissa J.
Abstract:: Performance evaluation of conventionally reinforced concrete (CRC) bridge superstructure elements with diagonal cracks is of interest to the bridge engineering community. Standardized methods to predict service-level stress magnitudes in cracked bridge girders under combined bending and shear forces are not available. An analysis procedure was developed to determine the response...

Flexural steel anchorage performance at diagonal crack locations

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...

The use of blended synthetic fibers to reduce cracking risk in high performance concrete (HPC)

Creator:: Bañuelos, José
Abstract:: High Performance Concrete (HPC) is used in our crucial pieces of infrastructure, such as bridge decks, due to its enhanced durability and engineering properties. However, HPC is highly susceptible to early-age cracking. Cracking within the first months of a bridge deck’s lifespan can severely hinder its long-term performance and durability....

Experimental and analytical evaluation of conventionally reinforced deck-girder bridge bent caps with vintage details

Creator:: Senturk, Ahmet Ekin
Abstract:: Many conventionally reinforced concrete deck girder (RCDG) bridges were built in the US during the 1950s, throughout the expansion of the Interstate System. Designs followed the AASHO standard of the time, which permitted higher shear stress in concrete and reduced detailing requirements than permitted by current specifications. Many of these...

Development of acoustic emissions testing procedures applicable to conventionally reinforced concrete deck girder bridges subjected to diagonal tension cracking

Creator:: Lovejoy, Steven C.
Abstract:: A need exists to develop a non-destructive testing technique that can identify the formation and propagation of diagonal tension cracks in conventionally steel reinforced concrete deck girder (RCDG) highway bridges in the State of Oregon. Such a technique could be included into a structural health monitoring (SHM) system installed on...

Shear strengthening reinforced concrete bridge girders using near-surface mounted titanium alloy bars

Creator:: Knudtsen, Jonathan
Abstract:: Aging and deficient infrastructure has become a major problem throughout the world. This is particularly evident in the case of reinforced concrete (RC) bridges. The cost of replacing these bridges is often prohibitive, thus engineers must find ways to strengthen them. Many older RC bridges predate the modern understanding of...

Shear repair methods for conventionally reinforced concrete girders and deep beams

Creator:: Howell, Daniel A.
Abstract:: Many conventionally reinforced concrete deck girder bridges (RCDG) and their intermediate supporting bent caps were designed during the Eisenhower interstate era of the 1950’s with the AASHO design equations at the time, which subsequently place higher demand on the concrete. The referenced components may exhibit diagonal cracking due to the...

Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Beams with Corrosion Damaged Stirrups for Shear Capacity

Creator:: Higgins, Christopher, Turan, O. Tugrul, and Farrow, William C. III
Abstract:: Corrosion of embedded carbon steel is a leading factor in deterioration of aging conventional reinforced concrete structures. Methods to accurately predict remaining capacity of corrosion damaged elements, especially shear capacity, are lacking. In this paper, ACI-AASHTO approach, Strut and Tie Method, Modified Compression Field Theory, and Response 2000 were used...

Early age performance of latex-modified concrete bridge deck overlays

Creator:: Sujjavanich, Suvimol
Abstract:: Environmental factors and physical properties of latex modified concrete (LMC) are hypothesized to contribute to early age cracking in bridge deck overlays. Cracking permits the ingress of moisture and aggressive solutions into the substrate and may contribute to other subsequent distresses. Understanding the material properties and mechanisms involved is necessary...

Influence of diagonal cracks on negative moment flexural anchorage performance in reinforced concrete bridge girders

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...
