The aim of the paper is to identify a suitable method for assessing the deformation of structures (buildings, bridges, walls, etc.) by means of topographic measurements of significant targets positioned on the infrastructure under consideration. In parti...

In marine environments, bridge piers and columns are prone to corrosion caused by harmful media, particularly chloride ions. This corrosion can lead to cracking of the steel bars in the protective layer of the bridge piers. To enhance the corrosion resis...

The seismic damage in reinforced concrete bridges is identified in this study using the ?M and P? hybrid technique initially developed for planar frames, where M signifies ?Monitoring? and P denotes ?Pushover analysis?. The proposed methodology involves ...

Concrete-filled round-ended steel tubes (CFRTs) are a unique type of composite stub columns, which have the advantage of aesthetics and a well-distributed major?minor axis. Thus, the structure has been widely employed as piers and columns in bridges. To ...

Engineers need to know properties of shallow marine sediments to build piers, pipelines and even offshore windfarms. We present a method for estimating the density, P velocity and thickness of these sediments. The traveltime inversion of primary and mult...

In this study, a quasi-stumps group structure was proposed and placed upstream of the bridge piers to mitigate the scour of the waterflow on the riverbed. Both experiment and numerical simulations using FLOW 3D were employed to study the protective effec...

Given that the existing drainage strengthening methods for underwater damaged piers are expensive, inefficient, and cause shipping traffic disruptions, an urgent need exists to explore undrained strengthening methods, such as the precast concrete segment...

Bridges crossing rivers wider than 50 m are typically supported by piers. In a mobile riverbed, scour occurs around bridge piers, and it is the main cause of bridge collapses worldwide, especially during floods. While bridge pier scour has been extensive...

The seismic strengthening of buildings in earthquake-prone areas has been a hot topic in recent years, especially for masonry structures. Because there are so many masonry structures and because most were built before seismic codes existed, their seismic...

In this paper, a bearing in situ replacement scheme for an existing busy railway bridge is proposed; its safety and stability in the critical process of construction are analyzed, and the implementation scheme, problems, and their solutions in the actual...
