Wave-in-deck loads on coastal bridges and the role of air
Coastal Engineering, 2009Recent failures of coastal bridges during extreme storm events have focused attention on the need for research on wave loading of coastal structures suspended above the still water level. This paper presents findings from large-scale experimental work carried out in the wave basin of the Yokohama Port and Airport Technical Investigation Office ...

Chloride profiles in a coastal bridge
Structure and Infrastructure Engineering, 2012This article addresses the results obtained in the field investigation performed on Barra Bridge, on the Portuguese Atlantic coast, to determine the degree of chloride transport into the concrete. A critical analysis is performed to quantify (i) the influence of the degree of exposure to the chloride environment, (ii) the average values of the apparent

Study on the Durability of Coastal Area Bridge
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014The durability of coastal area bridge structures is more prominent, first, the understanding of the durability of the concrete is insufficient before, and the corresponding measures has not taken; Second, accelerating deterioration of the reinforced concrete is due to the environment and climate factors.

Uplift Wave Load on the Superstructure of Coastal Bridges
New Horizons and Better Practices, 2007Coastal bridges are exposed to severe wind and wave loads during a hurricane. Because the density of water is much larger than the density of air, the magnitude of wave loads is much larger than wind load, and can demolish the bridge superstructure if it was not specifically designed to withstand wave loads.

Review of the Hydraulic Capacity of Bridges in a Coastal Area
Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, 2005This technical note presents an analysis of the hydraulic capacity of several bridges in a coastal area in Mexico, following cyclonic floods. The heights and lengths of the bridges and the flow rates of the rivers were the comparison parameters used.

Review of Wave Loads on Coastal Bridge Decks
Applied Mechanics Reviews, 2016Recent natural extreme events, such as Hurricane Ike in the U.S. (2008), Tohoku tsunami in Japan (2011), and Typhoon Haiyan in Southeast Asia (2013), have caused significant damage to the decks of coastal bridges. The failure of the structure occurs when wave-induced loads on the decks of coastal bridges exceed the bridge capacity, resulting in partial

Research on Durability of Coastal Concrete Bridges
Advanced Materials Research, 2011The work presented in this paper focuses on durability of concrete bridges, which is worldwide concerned nowadays because concrete bridges will deteriorate and damage under the natural environment and the long-term usage. The shortage in bridges durability performance will result in severe environment problems; energy sources matters and economic ...
