  1. 1. Bridge Edge Beams : LCCA and Structural Analysis for the Evaluation of New Concepts

    Author : José Javier Veganzones Muñoz; Lars Pettersson; Costin Pacoste; Raid Karoumi; Håkan Sundquist; Morgan Johansson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Byggvetenskap;

    Abstract : Bridge edge beams in Sweden may involve up to 60% of the life-cyclemeasure costs incurred along the road bridge’s life span. Moreover, usercosts as means of traffic disturbances are caused. Consequently, the SwedishTransport Administration started a project to find better alternativeedge beam design proposals for the society. READ MORE

  2. 2. An Algorithmic Framework for Intelligent Concrete Structural Defects Detection and Classification

    Author : Ali Mirzazade; Björn Täljsten; Cosmin Popescu; Thomas Blanksvärd; Diogo Rodrigo Ferreira Ribeiro; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Civil Engineering Structures; defect detection; Structural Health Assessment; Bridge Inspection; Computer Vision; Point-Cloud Generation; Severity Assessment; Machine Learning Regression; Bridge 3D Modeling; Unmanned Inspections; Byggkonstruktion; Structural Engineering;

    Abstract : The primary objective of inspecting concrete civil structures is to gather information concerning the deterioration of concrete elements, including issues like concrete cover cracking, delamination, or corrosion. Typically, this data is documented through field inspection notes, hand-drawn sketches, and photographs. READ MORE

  3. 3. Bridge Overhang Slabs with Edge Beams : LCCA and Structural Analysis for the Development of New Concepts

    Author : José Javier Veganzones Muñoz; Costin Pacoste; Raid Karoumi; Lars Pettersson; Rui Vaz Rodrigues; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Overhang slab; Edge beam; Life-cycle Cost Analysis; Non-linear FE-analysis; Design methods; Shear force; Failure mode; Effective width; Minimal width.; Konsolplattor; Kantbalkar; Livscykelkostnadsanalys; Icke-linjär FE-analys; Dimensioneringsmetoder; Tvärkrafter; Brott; Fördelningsbredd; Minimal bredd.; Bro- och stålbyggnad; Structural Engineering and Bridges;

    Abstract : Bridge edge beams are associated with high life-cycle costs because of the need of maintenance, which also causes traffic disturbances. For this reason, the Swedish Transport Administration started a project to find better solutions. One of the proposals was a design without edge beam. READ MORE

  5. 5. Composite Bridges : Innovative ways of achieving composite action

    Author : Robert Hällmark; Peter Collin; Ian May; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Composite action; bridges; steel; concrete; shear connectors; prefabrication; coiled spring pins; shear studs; post-installation; design guidance; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Abstract : The topic of this thesis is steel-concrete composite bridges and innovative ways of achieving composite action. The typical superstructure consists of three main components: the steel girders, the concrete deck slab and the shear connectors. READ MORE
