Systematic Rehabilitation Techniques and Dynamic Analysis of Bridge Deck System with Concrete-Filled Steel Tube Arches

open access: yesBuildings
Due to prolonged heavy traffic, the Wuhan Changfeng Bridge has experienced extensive cracking in its main girder structure. Of the bridge’s 60 crossbeams, 51 (85%) have developed cracks, while the deck pavement over the steel beams has accumulated a ...
