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 ...

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

Slip analysis of prestressed steel-concrete continuous composite beam
To analyze the horizontal shear resistance participation degree of the shear studs on the web and diaphragm flange in the negative moment area of the steel–concrete continuous composite box girder, the steel–concrete composite girder specimen was ...

Abstract Reinforced concrete (RC) beams can be subjected to torsion, and failure due to torsion is brittle and poses a significant risk to occupants. Moreover, strengthening of existing RC beams in torsion may be required due to the upgrade of the structures or as part of structural rehabilitation.

The Analysis Of Reinforced Concrete Box Girder Viaduct Defects and Their Estimation
The article describes the main damages of box girder viaducts constructed in Lithuania and discusses the reasons for their occurrence. Several viaducts are examined in more detail with regard to their design data and experimental results. Using finite element software “Midas Civil” the distribution of the main stresses was determined in the box and ...

Impact of half‐joint failures on RC girder bridges: A robustness quantification study
Abstract The robustness of bridge structures is critical to ensuring safety and service continuity, particularly in aging infrastructure exposed to degradation and unexpected loads. Reinforced concrete (RC) half‐joint bridges—widely built in Italy between the 1950s and 1970s—exhibit specific vulnerabilities due to inspection challenges, durability ...

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.

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.
