Implementing a Long-Term Bridge Monitoring Strategy for a Composite Steel Girder Bridge
… of Transportation have established a long-term bridge health monitoring system to monitor critical vulnerabilities in a group of bridges throughout the state. This research focuses on a three-span, simply supported composite steel girder bridge carrying three lanes of highway traffic. It has …

Thermal Gradients in Southwestern United States and the Effect on Bridge Bearing Loads
Thermal gradients became a component of bridge design after soffit cracking in prestressed concrete bridges was attributed to nonlinear temperature distribution through the depth of the bridge. While the effect of thermal gradient on stress distributions has been previously investigated in concrete …

The Viability of Steel-Concrete Composite Girder Bridges with Continuous Profiled Steel Deck
… of constructing short-span, simply supported composite steel girder bridges. However, because shear studs can only be welded to the girder through the steel deck at rib locations, the number of shear stud locations is limited to the number of ribs in the shear span while the spacing of the …
