The military requires methods of predicting the response of steel bridge beams and girders to blast and fragment loads. The methods must provide quick answers to analysts who have very little experience, if any, in the blast response of structures. S

High Performance Materials in Bridges.
This paper offers an overview of an extensive series of flexural tests conducted on beams retrofitted with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) plates using the mechanical fastening technique. The tests showed that strength gains close to that expected fro

In general, military vehicles are heavier, wider, and have much different axle/tire configurations than 'civilian' type trucks for which conventional load distribution factors have been developed. Thus, use of conventional load distribution factors t
