Presents the first ever guide for vehicle scanning of the dynamic properties of bridges
Written by the leading author on the subject of vehicle scanning method (VSM) for bridges, this book allows engineers to monitor every bridge of concern on a regular and routine basis, for the purpose of maintenance and damage detection. It includes a review of the existing literature on the topic and presents the basic concept of extracting bridge frequencies from a moving test vehicle fitted with vibration sensors. How road surface roughness affects the vehicle scanning method is considered and a finite element simulation is conducted to demonstrate how surface roughness affects the vehicle response. Case studies and experimental results are also included.
Vehicle Scanning Method for Bridges covers an enhanced technique for extracting higher bridge frequencies. It examines the effect of road roughness on extraction of bridge frequencies, and looks at a dual vehicle technique for suppressing the effect of road roughness. A filtering technique for eliminating the effect of road roughness is also presented. In addition, the book covers the identification of bridge mode shapes, contact-point response for modal identification of bridges, and damage detection of bridges--all through the use of a moving test vehicle.

Автор: Rockland Michael Aaron Название: The George Washington Bridge: Poetry in Steel ISBN: 0813594618 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780813594613 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 30890.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: Since opening in 1931, the George Washington Bridge, linking New York and New Jersey, has become the busiest bridge in the world, with 103 million vehicles crossing it in 2016. Many people also consider it the most beautiful bridge in the world, yet remarkably little has been written about this majestic structure. Intimate and engaging, this revised and expanded edition of Michael Rockland's rich narrative presents perspectives on the GWB, as it is often called, that span history, architecture, engineering, transportation, design, the arts, politics, and even post-9/11 mentalities. This new edition brings new insight since its initial publication in 2008, including a new chapter on the infamous 'Bridgegate' Chris Christie-era scandal of 2013, when members of the governor's administration shut down access to the bridge, causing a major traffic jam and scandal and subsequently helping undermine Christie's candidacy for the US presidency. Stunning photos, from when the bridge was built in the late 1920s through the present, are a powerful complement to the bridge's history. Rockland covers the competition between the GWB and the Brooklyn Bridge that parallels the rivalry between New Jersey and New York City. Readers will learn about the Swiss immigrant Othmar Ammann, an unsung hero who designed and built the GWB, and how a lack of funding during the Depression dictated the iconic, uncovered steel beams of its towers, which we admire today. There are chapters discussing accidents on the bridge, such as an airplane crash landing in the westbound lanes and the sad story of suicides off its span; the appearance of the bridge in media and the arts; and Rockland's personal adventures on the bridge, including scaling its massive towers on a cable. Movies, television shows, songs, novels, countless images, and even PlayStation 2 games have aided the GWB in becoming a part of the global popular culture. This tribute will captivate residents living in the shadow of the GWB, the millions who walk, jog, bike, skate, or drive across it, as well as tourists and those who will visit it someday.

Описание: The Federal Highway Administration 100-Year Coating Study was initiated in August 2009 to identify coating systems that can provide 100 years of virtually maintenance-free service life at comparable costs to the existing coating systems, even in adverse environments. This book focuses on the study and discusses the performance evaluation of one-coat systems for new steel bridges.

Описание: A structural design can be executed only after drawings are supplied to site engineers and technical staff. It is obviously important that design engineers should be provided with correct drawings. Because of this civil engineering students are taught not only design but also drawing. The design of steel structures as per IS: 800-2007 is presented in this text along with detailed drawings.

Описание: Design, rehabilitate and maintain modern highway bridge from steel and reinforced concrete design, to highway layout and basic geometrics, to geotechnical engineering and hydraulics are all explained in this book. Written with unusual clarity and packed with timely design examples and case studies plus eye opening sidebars and graphics, the book shows bridge structures, function, types and applications; design superstructures and substructures for maximum maintainability; design highway components. The book is an easy approach pavement and serves as a slab, structures geometrics and elevations, roadways alignments and more; kick off the project-from funding to site surveying and coring; manage the design process-contract documents, reports, plans client interactions and many more; manage the bridge itself- from creating a structure inventory to extending GIS and CADD functionality. From initial concept all the way to final contract document preparation, the book bridge maintenance, safety and management presents a clear and detailed roadmap to the entire bridge process. Placing special emphasis on rehabilitation design and maintenance techniques, the book is filled with important design procedures and illustrations.
