Overall feasibility assessment of polyester polyurethane concrete used as steel bridge deck pavement
Frontiers in Materials, 2022 Traditional pavement materials used in the orthotropic steel bridge deck suffer from various pavement distresses and thus reduce the service life of the steel bridge. Therefore, this study proposed a novel engineered material named polyester polyurethane

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1352-1361, September 2026.Abstract Bridge decks with longitudinal trapezoidal stiffeners are widely used in long‐span steel bridges because they offer an effective balance of strength, structural efficiency, and durability. Key design challenges are accurately predicting the internal forces that develop in these stiffened decks under concentrated wheel loads, and how stiffener ...

Hot Spot Stress Evaluation of Welded Cope Hole Using Multi‐Scale FE Modelling
ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1852-1857, September 2026.Abstract The welded joints of the orthotropic deck of steel bridges are vulnerable to fatigue phenomena due to ageing and overloading conditions. Therefore, the accurate assessment of fatigue life depends on the precise estimation of stress concentrations at the critical details.

Feasibility Study of Strengthening Existing Single Span Steel Beam Concrete Deck Bridges; HR-214, June 1961 [PDF]
, 1961 Iowa has the same problem that confronts most states in the United States: many bridges constructed more than 20 years ago either have deteriorated to the point that they are inadequate for original design loads or have been rendered inadequate by ...

Fatigue performance of crossbeam‐to‐stiffener welded details adopted in OSD bridges
ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 2733-2738, September 2026.Abstract Orthotropic Steel Decks (OSDs) are extensively employed in bridge engineering for medium‐ to long‐span viaducts, primarily due to their high strength‐to‐weight efficiency and the reduced need for additional reinforced concrete components. However, the large number of welded joints, combined with the significant influence of cyclic loading ...
