Lumped damage mechanics as a diagnosis tool of reinforced concrete structures in service: case studies of a former bridge arch and a balcony slab

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2021
Reinforced concrete structures may need repair in order to ensure the designed durability. The assessment of the structural condition usually is made in loco, but sometimes numerical analyses are required as a low cost and effective preliminary diagnosis.

Shear Assessment of Reinforced Concrete Slab Bridges

open access: yesIABSE Reports, 2013
<p>The capacity of reinforced concrete solid slab bridges in shear is assessed by comparing the design beam shear resistance to the design value of the applied shear force due to the permanent actions and live loads. Results from experiments on half-scale continuous slab bridges are used to develop a set of recommendations for the assessment of ...
