One promising technique for the seismic design of highway bridges with steel superstructures is to dissipate energy through the inelastic deformation of the end cross frames. These so-called ductile ...

Tokyo, Japan – Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have carried out a detailed simulation showing how a common type of bridge fails during large-scale earthquakes. They modeled “I-shaped ...

A horizontally curved, precast- concrete, trapezoidal type of box-girder design that shaved some $9 million off an interchange project in Orlando, Fla., is attracting growing interest from the bridge ...

Crews picked concrete precast girders as heavy as 93.5 tons from a deteriorated bridge over the Williams River and transferred them to the first of two Vermont Interstate 91 bridge replacements, ...
