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.

Improved construction of concrete viaducts with movable scaffolding systems in Spain [PDF]
The current paper relates the state of the art of construction of viaducts with a movable scaffolding system (MSS). Two different procedures are introduced: the traditional sequence and the new sequence applied to some viaducts in Spain.

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 ...

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,

Industrial Design and Economic Analysis of Steel Box Girder Bridge with Conventional Span
To improve the industrial construction level of steel bridges, a prefabricated continuous steel box girder bridge was designed in this study, which is suitable for bidirectional four lanes and six lanes with spans ranging from 40 m to 80 m.

Optimum design of composite prestressed concrete girder railway bridges [PDF]
This paper deals with the formulation of design optimisation of pretsressed concrete bridges. The bridge is of a slab-on-girder type, hence modeled as an equivalent orthotropic plate.

Cr‐alloyed quenched and tempered prestressing steel wires were found to be as highly susceptible as non‐Cr‐alloyed ones. This finding is in contrast to the known literature. A newly developed and reproducible method for assessing susceptibility to hydrogen‐induced stress corrosion cracking was used.
