It is well known that concrete structures can lose strength and long-term durability after a fire. The literature on the remaining capacity of tunnel structures after fire is quite scattered, however, and few published post-fire inspection guides exi

A research project was undertaken to assess bats’ use of bridges for roosting in New England. The project included rapid visual assessments of 191 bridges and more extensive evaluation of 18 of these bridges. Full evaluations included acoustic moni

A testing program is reported to evaluate the capacity of oxyacetylene fillet welds in a fatigue prone detail. Historical context is provided to evaluate the oxyacetylene weld performance and past structural applications. This test program showed tha

For integral abutment bridge (IAB) design, there is no consensus on the preferable orientation of the piles supporting the abutment, although variations can affect overall bridge behavior and forces in the piles. This paper details a parametric study

Two integral abutment bridges in Vermont, USA were instrumented and monitored to report behavior under seasonal thermal load. This paper describes substructure response from 30 months of field data. The bridges are single span steel girder bridges of

Sensor location selection for structures is demonstrated via identifiability analysis. The sensitivities of sensor outputs to structural stiffness coefficients are computed by a model and transformed via continuous wavelet transforms into the time-sc

This paper presents the field evaluation of a damaged noncomposite steel girder bridge that is part of the interstate highway system in Vermont. This bridge is typical of late 1960s construction and spans over a two-lane state highway near the town o

An innovative bridge that includes prefabricated folded-plate girders (FPGs), precast-posttensioned lower sections of the integral abutments, and a precast T-wall gravity wingwall system is studied. Some results are specific to the girder system, but

Integral abutment bridges (IABs) are a common structural system for short to moderate span bridges. Construction of curved IABs, however, is limited partly due to lack of quantified performance. Many departments of transportation (DOTs) in the USA th

A method of damage localization is introduced which relies on continuous wavelet transformation of the structure's forced dynamic response. Continuous wavelet transforms represent the shape attributes of time series and enhance their delineation in t
