Bridge "examineering" or how monitoring and UHPFRC improve the performance of structures

Eugen Brühwiler

Examination engineering (short: "Examineering") of existing bridges comprises accurate determination of structural behavior and targeted use of advanced materials for improvement of structural behavior with the ultimate goal of limiting construction interv ...

Are current bridge load modelling techniques realistic for existing road bridges?

Eugen Brühwiler, Mark Anthony Treacy

Road traffic loading is a highly variable process with a wide range of complex variables to consider. Consequently, various simplifying assumptions are required to efficiently model heavy traffic events for bridge safety verification, which reduce the accu ...

Fatigue behaviour of bridge deck slab elements strengthened with reinforced UHPFRC

Eugen Brühwiler, Tohru Makita

With the occurrence of higher and more frequent axle loads on roads, in particular bridge deck slabs are more severely solicitated by fatigue loading. To avoid heavy interventions for strengthening of bridge deck slabs, an improved building material is use ...

Determining Control Strategies for Damage Tolerance of an Active Tensegrity Structure

Ian Smith, Nizar Bel Hadj Ali, Sinan Korkmaz

Tensegrity structures are spatial, reticulate and lightweight systems composed of struts and cables. Stability is provided by a self-stress state between tensioned and compressed elements. Tensegrities have received interest among scientists and engineers ...

Design of robust and ductile FRP structures incorporating ductile adhesive joints

Thomas Keller, Julia De Castro San Roman Fest

A design concept for engineering structures consisting of brittle FRP components and ductile adhesive joints is proposed. The elastoplastic adhesive joints provide system ductility that compensates for the material ductility that FRP composites lack. In th ...

Design through an incremental approach: the Swiss experience

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

In Switzerland, the current code for structural concrete published in 2003 privileged an incremental approach for design of new members or for assessment of existing structures with respect to a number of topics (shear, buckling, reinforcement detailing th ...
