Abstract:
Takehana No. 3 Bridge is a cable-trussed girder bridge constructed on a highway route in Shikoku Island, Japan. This is the first application of a cable-trussed girder bridge to a highway bridge in Japan. The cable-trussed bridge (or reversed cable-stayed girder bridge) consists of relatively slender steel plate I-girders, a spatial frame-type post arranged beneath the girders at the middle of the span, and external cables anchored at the ends of the girders. The structural details, static and dynamic characteristics, and design and construction of the bridge are presented. In addition, the efficiency of this type of bridge is emphasized.

Abstract:
This study investigates the effect of superstructure configuration on the optimum design of slab on Precast I (PCI) girder bridges. For this purpose, more than 20,000 bridge cases of varying superstructure configurations are considered to investigate the effects of various superstructure parameters such as girder spacing, span length, slab thickness and girder types on the optimum design of slab on PCI girder bridges. PCI girders are designed conforming to the AASHTO LRFD for flexure using stress limits at the service limit state, then checked at ultimate for flexure and shear using factored loads at the strength limit state. A modified harmony search optimization algorithm is used to obtain optimum bridge design parameters using standard AASHTO PCI girders according to these AASHTO LRFD requirements. Those girders are designed taking into consideration geometrical constraints, stress constraints and constraints related to the conformity of the design with the AASHTO LRFD code. Various sensitivity analysis are performed to investigate the effect of different geometrical factors on the design of the girders, and easy-to-use design aids were developed. The outcomes of this study may facilitate the bridge engineers to choose optimum design parameters such as girder types and spacing as well as number strands for a certain span length before the design of slab on PCI girder bridges.

Abstract:
Bridge 207 is a two-span horizontally curved steel plate girder bridge near Port Matilda, Pennsylvania. Although the curvature is not severe, the curvature combined with the unequal span balance caused an unusual distribution of force effects in the girders. A global twisting of the superstructure was caused by the unequal vertical deflections in the two spans. The computer program BSDI-3D was used to analyze the curved superstructure. To account for the out-of-plumb condition of the girders in their final condition, additional lateral flange bending moments were calculated. The magnitude of the additional lateral moments was a function of the vertical bending moments and the degree of twist in the girder. Field monitoring of the structure is focusing on the effects of curvature during construction. This is being accomplished by developing a detailed time line of superstructure erection and deck placement and through monitoring of the bridge by using vibrating wire strain gauges and tiltmeters positioned at critical locations on the girders and cross-frames. Field data were recorded before and after critical construction events, such as girder erection, cross-frame and formwork placement, and the deck pour. This information is being used to determine the effects of curvature on the cross-frames during construction by using axial stresses and strains and on the girders by using warping stresses and strains.

Abstract:
In bridge design, bridge decks regularly overhang past the exterior girders in arrange to extend the width of the deck whereas constraining the specified number of girders. The overhanging part of the deck comes about in uneven eccentric loads to the exterior girders which are by and large most prominent. These eccentric loads are primarily a result of bridge construction operations as well as the weight of new concrete and other construction live loads. These unbalanced loads can lead to a differential edge deflection of overhang deck and a rotation of the exterior girders. The girder rotation or differential deck deflection can also affect local and global stability of the entire bridge. The objective of this study is to enhance the knowledge and understanding of external girder behavior due to unbalanced eccentric construction loads and to identify the critical factors affecting their rotation. In this article, field data obtained during the construction of two skewed (one with a small skew (3.8°) and the second with a severe skew (24°)) and one non-skewed steel girder bridges are described, and a detailed comparison is presented. The three bridges experienced maximum outward exterior girder rotation during construction which subsequently decreased following construction operations. The field results were used to validate and calibrate the finite element models. The numerical and field-monitored data showed good agreement and can be used to assist bridge designers and construction engineers to design appropriate systems to limit girder rotation during construction.

Abstract:
A highway bridge across railways in-lieu of the level crossing will surely be smoothening the road traffic and the rail traffic. Hence, it is essential to bridge across the railways at all the level crossing locations in a developing country. Due to the introduction of a bridge across a busy railway track, the necessity to negotiate the level difference happens. This level difference is more with the usage of the conventional type of girders. By this, the delay of the project due to land acquisition is considerable. The most suitable superstructure for such highway bridge is the deck with shallow open type pre-stressed girders. When multiple shallow, open-type girders are placed adjacently and integrated with a deck slab above these, the load distribution and sharing between girders are to be refined based on experimental studies and authors discussed the same within this paper. An experimental study on two Double-T cross-section pre-stressed model girders and deck assembly revealed the structural behaviour between girders. The results from the two-point load testing helped in developing various design methodologies in this study. An escalation of 17% in the design forces need to be considered on the results obtaining from the grillage analysis, to cater the unbalanced forces on the individual web of the open-type girder, during the eccentric loading condition. The Authors elaborated the design of shear friction reinforcement. The self-managing capacity of the spreading tendency of the webs of this type of girders is due to the counteracting of radial pressure generated from the pre-stressing force. The critical aspects of construction also dealt with in this paper without which the usage of open-type girders with ends closed cannot be encouraged. The authors developed conceptual designs for the removable internal shutter, launching scheme and demolishing of the bridge superstructure, in this study. The dismantling of the bridge is a rare requirement arises only when the number of track increases. The reuse of girder-deck assembly is also found possible and suggested in this paper.

Abstract:
Bridge safety is one of the most critical concerns among civil engineering fields due to its high importance. The redundancy of bridges was heavily investigated in the literature; however, they were focused on twin girder redundancy cases. Additionally, literatures were scarce in studies that focused on the improvement that should be made to achieve redundancy systems in different AASHTO I-girder types. Thus, this study focused on assessing the additional required number of tendons for different AASHTO I-girder types and spacing between them to achieve the redundancy of I-girder bridges. The additional unbonded tendons are suggested to be added externally or internally. The parameters varied in this study are compressive strength of ultrahigh-performance concrete (UHPC), spacing between girders (i.e. number of girders) and type of girders. Leap Bridge Concrete software was used to simulate the required structural modes. After performing extensive numerical analyses following AASHTO LRFD guidelines, the results have shown that in case of the removal of external I-girder, the tendons in the nearest girder need to be nearly increased by 1.85 to 2.3 times compared to the original design, depending on spacing, compressive strength, and the number of girders. On the other hand, in the case of interior girder removal, the number of tendons in the nearest two girders need to be increased by 1.24 to 1.32 times the original design. The effect of compressive strength variation of the used UHPC was negligible compared to spacing and type of girder. It is worth mentioning that all simulations in this study were verified using CSI Bridge software.

Abstract:
This study documents the construction of the Waynesboro Route 340 Bridge with low-maintenance corrosion resistant steel girders, cross-frames, and stainless steel bolts. This includes documenting the fabrication of the ASTM A1010 steel plate, girder and secondary members, erecting the girders, and completion of the construction process. The types of stainless steel materials used to fabricate the girders are reported with a comparison to traditional materials. Information on the material properties was documented. Cost analysis was performed and guidance was provided to the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) about how this type of plate girder will benefit the DOT. Overall, the design, fabrication, and construction of the A1010 steel girder Route 340 bridge was a success. This is the first bridge in the United States to use A1010 haunched girders, completely stainless steel bolted splices, and A1010 cross frames. To that end, it was concluded that a conventional steel bridge fabricator can successfully fabricate an A1010 steel bridge. Through detailed testing of the stainless steel bolts, it was also shown that acceptable utilization of stainless steel structural connections can be achieved. VDOT was also able to successfully demonstrate fabrication of A1010 steel cross frames utilizing bent plate shapes. It is recommended to continue to evaluate improved welding processes for the A1010 base metal and to consider the use of A1010 as a repair material for in-service structures located in corrosive macro-environments, such as near saltwater or industrial sites, or those which contain aggressive micro-environments such as steel beam ends under joints.

Abstract: In India railway bridge structures are widely designed with the method suggested by IRS – Concrete bridge code 1997.This Code of Practice applies to the use of plain, reinforced and prestressed concrete in railway bridge construction. It covers both in-situ construction and manufacture of precast units. The Code gives detailed specifications for materials and workmanship for concrete, reinforcement and prestressing tendons used in the construction of railway bridges. After defining the loads, forces and their combinations and requirements for the limit state design, particular recommendations are given for plain concrete, reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete bridge construction. The design of I-Girder bridge superstructure (deck slab and PSC I-beam) are done by calculating bending moments, shear forces, bending resistance in transverse direction, bending resistance in longitudinal direction, checking flexural cracking. The Design of PSC I-Girders is done for Bending moments and Shear forces by Dead Load, Super Imposed Dead Load (SIDL) and Live Loads (LL). The Shrinkage strain, Creep Strain and effect of Temperature rise and fall are also determined. The design is complete for Pre-stressing cables, un-tensioned reinforcements, End cross girder, Shear connectors. I-girder superstructures are the most commonly used superstructures at cross-over location in metro bridges in india, as it has the wide deck slab and it easily permits metro’s to change tracks. I-Girder superstructure construction is component wise construction unlike U-Girders. I-Girders are constructed in casting yard and its deck slab is cast in situ, parapets are also installed on later stage.

Abstract:
During construction, girder stability of precast, prestressed concrete bridge girders is adversely affected by fabrication imperfections. Consequently, limits on lateral sweep imperfection caused by fabrication tolerances are imposed by design standards, thus reducing the possibility of girder instability and rollover. However, thermal sweep, induced by solar heating during early stages of construction, can add to pre-existing fabrication tolerances thereby amplifying girder imperfections and reducing stability. In the present study, lateral thermal gradients available in the literature were adopted and enhanced for purposes of computing thermal girder sweep. A variety of girder types—PCI BT-63, Florida-I Beams, and AASHTO Type-V—were then investigated to quantify the influence that lateral thermal sweep has on the stability of individual precast concrete bridge girders under lateral wind load. Previously validated finite element analysis modeling and analysis techniques were used to conduct a parametric study that included 10 girder types, varying span lengths, and five geographic locations. Results revealed that thermal sweep may cause wind carrying capacity reductions of the order of 30 to 60% for typical span lengths, and even greater reductions at span lengths that approach maximum design limits. Consequently, it is crucial that thermal sweep, caused by environmental solar-heating conditions, be considered in construction-stage girder stability analyses.

Abstract:
The Korean High-Speed Rail Project, Korean Train Express, has 109 km (67 mi) of bridges that comprise about 27% of the entire alignment. The successful construction of these bridges significantly affects overall project progress. To meet tight schedule and quality control standards, in addition to cost savings, contractors proposed the precast span method (PSM) versus the original girder designs on some segments of the line. This first application of PSM to high-speed rail in Korea has posed some challenges: design requirements for high-speed railway bridges are stricter than those for road bridges because of stringent deformation requirements. The adoption of PSM girders has improved the construction quality and schedule. PSM requires no falsework and is not limited by ground and weather conditions, thus being well suited for the construction of long viaducts under stringent budget and construction schedule requirements. With PSM, one full span of a precast-concrete box girder is manufactured in a casting yard, lifted by hydraulic jacks, transported with a special carrier, and placed by the launching girder into the final position. The PSM units are then tied into two or three 25-m (82-ft) or continuous spans using cast-in-place concrete in place of concrete and posttensioning. The contractors manufactured the PSM girders in a temporary manufacturing facility and reduced the installation cycle time for one 25-m (82-ft) long box girder to 11/2 days. The design, fabrication, transportation, and installation of the box girders for the Korean high-speed railway viaducts with PSM are discussed. Project and economic implications of PSM are compared with the movable scaffolding system method.

Abstract:
The torsional rigidity of tub-girder makes them ideal for use in curved bridges. The use on skewed support applications by bridge designers is limited as the behavior is complex and requires the use of advanced analysis tools. In consequence, a simplified analysis method to account for the effects of skew on tub-girder twist rotations and internal torques and how these affect the internal component forces was proposed. The combined effects of skew and curvature are studied by examining the results for analysis with different levels of sophistication for 18 representative bridges. The data generated constitutes the first systematic study on a large set of curved and skewed tub-girder bridges using consistent, refined 3D FEA models to model construction forces and deformations. Comparisons of the simplified analysis method to the refined 3D FEA analysis display the limitations of the simplified analysis and present potential sources of error. Furthermore, the results from the 3D FEA helped identify interactions between components and, therefore, an improved simplified procedure was proposed to account for the effects of the resulting increased stresses. In addition, the bridge erection procedures are discussed and specific examples illustrating the calculation of the fit-up forces is presented. These findings provided additional tools for the analysis process and erection engineering to account for the effects of skew. Lastly, further research needs considering the analysis of additional loading conditions and construction procedures are described.

Abstract:
Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) is a new class of concrete characterized by no coarse aggregate, steel fiber reinforcement, low w/c, low permeability, compressive strength exceeding 29,000 psi (200 MPa), tensile strength ranging from 1,200 to 2,500 psi (8 to 17 MPa), and very high toughness. These properties make prestressed precast UHPC bridge girders a very attractive replacement material for steel bridge girders, particularly when site demands require a comparable beam depth to steel and a 100+ year life span is desired. In order to efficiently utilize UHPC in bridge construction, it is necessary to create new design recommendations for its use. The interface between precast UHPC girder and cast-in-place concrete decks must be characterized in order to safely use composite design methods with this new material. Due to the lack of reinforcing bars, all shear forces in UHPC girders have to be carried by the concrete and steel fibers. Current U.S. codes do not consider fiber reinforcement in calculating shear capacity. Fiber contribution must be accurately accounted for in shear equations in order to use UHPC. Casting of UHPC may cause fibers to orient in the direction of casting. If fibers are preferentially oriented, physical properties of the concrete may also become anisotropic, which must be considered in design. The current research provides new understanding of shear and shear friction phenomena in UHPC including: *Current AASHTO codes provide a non-conservative estimate of interface shear performance of smooth UHPC interfaces with and without interface steel. *Fluted interfaces can be created by impressing formliners into the surface of plastic UHPC. AASHTO and ACI codes for roughened interfaces are conservative for design of fluted UHPC interfaces. *A new equation for the calculation of shear capacity of UHPC girders is presented which takes into account the contribution of steel fiber reinforcement. *Fibers are shown to preferentially align in the direction of casting, which significantly affects compressive behavior of the UHPC.

Abstract:
AbstractIn order to understand whether the alignment, internal force and cable force of the special-shaped cable-stayed bridge can still meet the design and code requirements due to the influence of the transverse displacement of the support during the construction process, the transverse displacement of the girder arch system is restricted before the removal of the support. The difference between the measured value and the designed value at each stage of the boom is within ±5%, which meets the design and specification requirements. In this paper, the pedestrian bridge in Anyi County, Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province is taken as an example. MADIS/Civil software is used for finite element simulation analysis in the construction stage, and the linear shape, internal force and cable force of the superstructure are monitored. The results show that the measured deformation values of arch ribs and beams meet the design and specification requirements during the whole construction process. The difference between the measured value and the designed value at each stage of the boom is within ±5%, which meets the design and specification requirements.

Abstract:
<p>In order to reduce the weight of prefabricated cover girders and solve the construction problem that it is difficult to realize one-time prefabricated assembly of large cantilever concrete cover girders, urban viaducts usually use large cantilever prestressed concrete cover girders. Taking a 2×30m simply-supported girder bridge as the superstructure, the paper proposes a precast longitudinal split type cover girder, and uses the large general finite element analysis software WISEPLUS to establish a finite element model to simulate and adjust the structural structure, prestressing distribution, and construction stage division of each cover girder (single 1,0m, 0,9m, 0,8m), and the cover girder under this design method in the construction stage and The design method is used to verify the feasibility and reasonableness of the design scheme, and to provide methods and references for similar designs.</p>

Abstract:
<p>The Second Hinterrhein-Bridge is an award-winning new 200m long single-track railway bridge spanning over the river Rhine and the Highway A13 in a picturesque valley in the Swiss Alps. It has four spans and is located adjacent to a magnificent historic steel truss railway bridge. In the continuation of this heritage structure, a matching new 50m long bridge is spanning over the highway. The two bridges were carefully designed into a highly significant and sensitive location both from a transport infrastructure, landscape and heritage point of view. The girders have identical U-shaped cross sections formed by trapezoidal steel boxes on each side, with the tracks supported on ballast on top of a steel plate stiffened by shallow transverse crossbeams. The girders were fabricated in segments in the workshop and assembled on site into lifting segments up to 50m long that were installed by crawler crane. The last segment was lifted onto the new bridge and launched over the highway. On the completed bridge, load tests with two locomotives were carried out before taking the bridge into service. The design was the winner of an international competition held in 2015.</p>

Abstract:
<p>The future of bridge and overpass design is to be fully circular. To reach that goal many innovations in construction should be made. One of the first steps is to alter the mainly existing linear construction sequence. Therefore, Royal HaskoningDHV started the innovation of re-using prefabricated concrete girders for new overpasses and bridges. In this paper the deconstruction and possible adaption processes are described. It was investigated if girders can be shortened, and their skew angle adapted. This was tested on a real girder. From this it can be concluded that adaption of existing girders is feasible. With this it is easier to re-use girders which can result in less time in storage and shorter transportation distance. Re-use for new design. It is also concluded that omitting the transverse diaphragm beams at the supports is an example of the highest principle of circularity ‘rethink the needs’ and find a non-material solution.</p>

Abstract:
The Norwegian Public Roads Administration is running a project “Ferry free coastal route E39” which includes replacing ferry crossings by bridges or tunnels across fjords in Western Norway. A floating bridge concept was proposed in the fjord-crossing project for Bjørnefjorden. As there are regular cruise routes passing by the bridge, it raises the concern for the consequences of accidental ship collision with the bridge girder. During the collision, the interactions between the bridge girder and the ship structure can be significant. Thus, in the design of the proposed bridge it is vital to evaluate the safety of the ship and the bridge. In this paper, detailed finite element models of a cruise ship and a steel box girder are developed. The impact scenarios and structural damages are studied. The results show that the proposed bridge girder design is generally safe to resist normal accidental ship collision loads. Numerical model of the whole bridge is also developed for further study of bridge global response subjected to ship collision load.

Abstract:
<p>Installed in Ganhyun Park, Wonju-si, South Korea, the 404 Skybridge is the longest pedestrian bridge in Korea, planned as a three-dimensional cable suspension bridge with a main span length of 380m. The location of the installation lies about 100m above from the ground level, on a slope of the mountain which presents very difficult construction condition.</p><p>The three-dimensional cable suspension bridge is a challenge to construct but capable to achieve slender girders to have strong horizontal rigidity, without using separate wind resisting cables. By implementing the 3D angle of the cables much larger than the general three-dimensional suspension bridge, the horizontal rigidity of the girders enhanced, and flutter wind speed increased.</p><p>At the start of the 404 Skybridge, Skywalk was constructed to provide scenery of the Ganhyun Park.</p>

Abstract:
<p>The new Inner Harbour Bridge in Copenhagen is innovative both in its method of opening and a number of its design features. The moving bridge comprises two steel box girders that retract by sliding between fixed concrete approach spans. The steel box girders are of a highly unusual form involving plan curvature, continually changing cross sections and a faceted – or triangulated – inner web. Furthermore, because of the support arrangement, the girders go from cantilevering to simply-supported conditions over the course of an opening cycle.<p>The dynamic response of the box girders, with 35 m cantilevering spans in the service condition, presented a challenge which was addressed in the design by a combination of rationalised design criteria and the application of a series of tuned mass dampers.<p>The project has been delayed for a variety of reasons, not least due to the original contractor going into liquidation part way through, and the fixed concrete spans were modified by adding a new composite top layer of reinforced concrete following the original casting.<p>This paper touches briefly on the unique form and opening mechanism of the bridge and then turns to the details of some of the novel structural aspects.
