Behavior and Analysis of an Instrumented Slab Bridge (Civil Project)
To get this project, follw this link.
Because of quick construction and cost
effectiveness, adjacent precast, prestressed box girder bridges have
been used nowadays more often for short-span
bridges, and the standardization of this modular bridge is highly
desired. Maryland intends to revise its current practice of using
tie-rods for the transverse post-tensioning in slab bridge design.
The new design of using high strength
rods will provide a more tightly integrated modular slab bridge system
with higher post-tensioning forces. With the new design, the Maryland
State Highway Administration is highly interested in the performance of
the new design, especially compared with the old design. This thesis
presents the procedure of test, live load test results and analysis
results in association with the finite-element model simulated in a
newly-built bridge.
