Bending behavior of steel-UHPC composite bridge deck based on epoxy adhesive

Frontiers in Materials, 2022
Using ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) as the pavement layer on the orthotropic steel deck (OSD) can greatly enhance the rigidity to solve the fatigue cracking of the steel deck and the resulting damage to the pavement layer. However, the thin UHPC

Improvement of the Nonlinear Damage Mathematical Model for Steel Components in Bridge Under Complex Stress

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
To investigate the relationship between load, damage, and fatigue life of complex engineering components under stress, this paper modifies the existing continuous nonlinear damage model based on the distortion energy density theory to reflect the usage and stress characteristics of Q345 steel components in bridges.

Fatigue Life Assessment of Orthotropic Steel Deck with UHPC Pavement

Journal of Engineering, 2017
In recent years, a number of large-span bridges with orthotropic steel decks were constructed in China. With increasing traffic volumes and higher wheel loads, many fatigue cracks developed at the welds and the edge of cut-out holes.

Temperature Measurements During Asphalt Paving on a Bridge with Orthotropic Deck

ce/papers, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 233-237, December 2025.
Abstract Currently, there is no defined load case for asphalt paving in bridge design codes. This often leads to discussions during the planning of bridges in Germany, particularly for steel bridges. As part of the rehabilitation of the Franz Joseph Strauβ Bridge in Passau, the pavement was removed and newly installed.

Structural behavior of deteriorated Gerber half‐joints in highway overpasses by nonlinear finite element analysis combined with a simplified uniform‐corrosion model

Structural Concrete, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 5677-5707, October 2025.
Abstract Gerber half‐joints, broadly used in the last century as elements of concrete bridges, are prone to corrosion‐induced deterioration, which may lead to brittle shear collapse. It is of paramount importance to develop advanced numerical models for simulating the collapse behavior of Gerber half‐joints, taking material deterioration into account ...

Experimental Study of Environmental Conditions on In-Situ Engineered Cementitious Composites-Steel Deck Interface

Applied Sciences, 2020
In this study, engineered cementitious composite (ECC) was used as a deck paving for long-span bridges. The feasibility of using an epoxy adhesive to achieve wet-bonding between a steel deck and cast-in-place ECC was evaluated.
