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 ...
AIT Bridges, based in Brewer, on Tuesday unveiled a new bridge girder made of composite materials, and says the product is lighter and longer-lasting than traditional concrete and steel girders. The ...
