BRIDGE DESIGN & EVALUATION LRFD AND LRFD


Bridge Design and Evaluation: LRFD and LRFR (0470422254) cover image
 
BRIDGE DESIGN & EVALUATION LRFD & LRFR
Gongkang Fu
 
A succinct, real-world approach to complete bridge system design and evaluation
Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) and Load and Resistance Factor Rating (LRFR) are design and evaluation methods that have replaced or offered alternatives to other traditional methods as the new standards for designing and load-rating U.S. highway bridges. Bridge Design and Evaluation covers complete bridge systems (substructure and superstructure) in one succinct, manageable package. It presents real-world bridge examples demonstrating both their design and evaluation using LRFD and LRFR. Designed for a 3- to 4-credit undergraduate or graduate-level course, it presents the fundamentals of the topic without expanding needlessly into advanced or specialized topics.Important features include:

  • Exclusive focus on LRFD and LRFR
  • Hundreds of photographs and figures of real bridges to connect the theoretical with the practical
  • Design and evaluation examples from real bridges including actual bridge plans and drawings and design methodologies
  • Numerous exercise problems
  • Specific design for a 3- to 4-credit course at the undergraduate or graduate level
  • The only bridge engineering textbook to cover the important topics of bridge evaluation and rating
Bridge Design and Evaluation is the most up-to-date and inclusive introduction available for students in civil engineering specializing in structural and transportation engineering.

AERODINAMICA CIVIL EFECTOS DEL VIENTO EN EDIFICACIONES



AERODINAMICA CIVIL.
EFECTOS DEL VIENTO EN EDIFICACIONES Y ESTRUCTURAS
Jose Meseguer Ruiz, Anges Sanz Andres, Santiago Pindado Carrion

El objetivo de la aerodinámica civil es la estimación de las cargas aerodinámicas (fuerzas y momentos) que genera el flujo del aire alrededor de los cuerpos inmersos en la capa límite terrestre.

Para determinar estas cargas de viento, en la práctica de la ingeniería existen tres posibles métodos: analítico, numérico y experimental, y el procedimiento de cálculo suele ser una combinación racional de los tres métodos y además, obviamente, de la experiencia acumulada.

En esta línea, este libro, supone un documento básico que facilita el entendimiento de la compleja interacción entre viento y edificaciones y estructuras, y también sobre las consecuencias de las acciones del viento que es preciso encarar cuando tales acciones afectan a los usuarios de las construcciones y de sus entornos.

WIND EFFECTS ON CABLE-SUPPORTED BRIDGES

Wind Effects on Cable-Supported Bridges (1118188284) cover image
WIND EFFECTS ON CABLE-SUPPORTED BRIDGES
You-Lin Xou

An in-depth guide to understanding wind effects on cable supported bridges, this book uses analytical, numerical and experimental methods to give readers a practical understanding. It is structured to systemically move from introductory areas through to advanced topics currently being developed from research work. The book concludes with the application of the theory covered to real-world examples, enabling readers to apply their knowledge.
The author provides background material on the topic first of all, covering areas such as wind climate, cable-supported bridges, wind-induced damage, and the history of bridge wind engineering. Wind characteristics in atmospheric boundary layer, mean wind load and aerostatic instability, wind-induced vibration and aerodynamic instability, and wind tunnel testing are then described as the fundamentals of the subject. State-of-the-art contributions include wind and rain-induced cable vibration, wind-vehicle-bridge interactions, wind-induced vibration control, wind and structural health monitoring, and probabilistic evaluation and reliability analysis.Finally the theory is applied to the Tsing Ma suspension bridge and the Stonecutters cable-stayed bridge in Hong Kong. Amongst the world’s longest bridges, both are located in one of the world’s most active typhoon regions and equipped with incredibly comprehensive structural health monitoring systems. The book will therefore bridge the gap between the theoretical research and practical applications.
