desAIner: Design, Implementation, and Evaluation of an AI Tool for Construction Hazard Prevention Through Design (CHPtD) Education

Computer Applications in Engineering Education, Volume 34, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Construction Hazard Prevention through Design (CHPtD) is widely recognized as a proactive strategy for reducing worker risk by addressing hazards during planning and design. However, its integration into architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) education remains limited, leaving many students, who represent the next generation of ...

REHABILITATION OF BOX GIRDER BRIDGE

Proceedings of International Structural Engineering and Construction, 2017
A large pre-stress continuous box girder bridge consists of two separate parts, ten spans deck and eight spans deck. The bridge was subjected to multiple airstrikes, which caused several damages. The most serious are the complete destruction of four conductive spans in the ten spans deck, the movement of the remaining six spans longitudinally by about ...

Effective anchorage stress of prestressed tendons in PC girders under varying tensioning sequences [PDF]

Archives of Civil Engineering
In current design codes, the standardized anchorage stress of prestressed tendons in concrete girders is uniform, which presents a notable challenge in accurately assessing the effective anchorage stress of girders with varying span lengths.

Covariance Structure Modeling of Engineering Demand Parameters in Cloud‐Based Seismic Analysis

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 7, Page 1533-1551, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Probabilistic seismic demand modeling aims to estimate structural demand as a function of ground motion intensity—a critical stage in seismic risk assessment. Although many models exist to describe the structural demand, few consider the covariance among engineering demand parameters, potentially overlooking a key factor in improving the ...

Appearance Inspection‐Based Typical Damage Investigation of Concrete Curved Girder‐Type Bridges Subjected to Temperature and Vehicle Effect

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Technical approach of the article. ABSTRACT This study focuses primarily on concrete curved girder‐type bridges, which are commonly used for urban roads and highways. Over the last two decades, practical experience in bridge engineering has shown that these bridges have unique mechanical and damage characteristics, unlike conventional straight bridges.

Numerical Simulation of Post‐Yield Hysteretic Behavior of Lap‐Spliced Reinforced Concrete Bridge Pier Walls Under Earthquake Loading

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1356-1376, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Reinforced concrete pier walls designed before the 1970s often incorporate lap splice in potential plastic‐hinge regions. Previous experimental tests indicate that most of pier walls experienced post‐yield lap splice failure, necessitating a modeling approach that captures not only lap splice strength but also deformation capacity.

Vertical‐Component Seismic Response and System Identification of a 52‐Story High‐Rise Building Using Earthquake Data

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
This study investigates the vertical dynamic response of a 52‐story high‐rise building in downtown Los Angeles using small‐magnitude earthquake data recorded by the Community Seismic Network. While seismic design traditionally emphasizes horizontal ground motion, vertical accelerations can have a significant impact on tall structures, leading to ...

Structural Health Monitoring of a Unidirectional Isolation Bridge: Bidirectional Seismic Behavior, Stochastic Model Updating, and Prediction

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 759-780, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate mechanical characterization of civil engineering structures after construction remains challenging due to the unique complexities of each structure, including geometric configurations, imperfect design modeling assumptions, soil conditions, and pervasive uncertainties in actual operational environments. Leveraging actual measurements,

Bending Capacity of Reinforced Concrete Box-Girders Strengthened with SMPM Laminates

, 2011
Steel stranded wire mesh and polymer mortar (SMPM) is a novel technique recently developed for structural strengthening. To investigate the feasibility of strengthening reinforced concrete (RC) bridge box-girders with SMPM, bending tests on three scaled ...
