Two methodological approaches to assess the seismic vulnerability of masonry bridges
Journal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2019 This work describes the seismic vulnerability assessment of a railway masonry arch bridge. Its conservation state is initially investigated by means of a thorough field and laboratory test campaign, comprising destructive and non-destructive tests.

Flexural Behavior of Hybrid Composite Beam (HCB) Bridges
Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2019 A new hybrid composite beam (HCB) has recently been used in the construction of three bridges in Missouri, USA. HCB consists of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) that is poured into classical arch shape and tied at the ends by steel tendons.
