Model studies on plate girders
Tests on eighteen small scale models which simulate the elastic and post-buckling behaviour of plate girders when subjected to shear loading are reported and discussed. The models were fabricated of steel and Araldite; the major aim was to assess whether small scale models can be employed to study shear buckling problems.

Abstract After a blossoming pre‐World War II (WWII) period, the concrete construction industry in then‐socialist Hungary existed in a relative isolation from the Western World during the mid‐20th century. In this paper, we focus on the body of work of one of the then newly established state‐owned design offices, IPARTERV, to show how the isolation ...

Analysis of flange impact on critical patch load of thin-walled I-girders
A numerical analysis of the flange impact on the critical load level of thin-walled I-girders subjected to patch load. The analysis is done by forming a 3D model in Abaqus software based on the finite element method, through variation of flange to web ...

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.

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.

BEHAVIOUR OF COMPOSITE PLATE GIRDERS WITH PARTIAL INTERACTION
This paper is concerned with the behaviour and strength of composite plate girders in which, the interaction between the steel plate girder and concrete slab is partial. Based on curvature compatibility principle, an approximate method is proposed from which, the shear capacity and deflection at any given load may be determined.

Structural analysis of a composite continuous girder with a single rectangular web opening
In the design of most bridge girders with composite girders composed of steel–concrete composite plate girders, an opening in the steel girder is often used to provide passage for utility ducts and pipes.

An innovative gusset plate connection, which acts as a rigid connection, was proposed and investigated parametrically and numerically. Also, the required equations to design the system were proposed. Results indicated that the gusset plate yields a ductile fuse while the beam and column remain elastic.

Anchorage System Contribution to Post‐Tensioned Bridge Collapse
This paper presents an experimental investigation of a 1960s precast post‐tensioned girder bridge in Trstena, Slovakia, revealing severe corrosion and anchorage degradation that ultimately led to its collapse. The findings highlight critical vulnerabilities in obsolete anchorage systems and emphasize the need for proactive assessment and maintenance of

FATIGUE BEHAVIOR OF CONNECTION PLATE BETWEEN MAIN GIRDER AND CROSS BEAM IN COMPOSITE PLATE GIRDER
Since urban freeway bridges were opened for traffic more than ten years ago, there have been so many reports on the necessity of reparing cracks and deformations. For an example, the cracks at the connection plate between girder and lateral load-distribution cross beam are reported, and also the cracks at the connection plate between girder and sway ...
