1. FE-Modelling of Composite Girder tests
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : Many of the existing steel-concrete bridges may need to be strengthened, as heavier vehicles areallowed on the Swedish roads. These bridges could possibly be strengthened by post-installingshear connectors. The shear connectors may enhance the load-bearing capacity through a higherdegree of composite action between the steel and concrete interface. READ MORE

2. Strengthening of non-composite bridges by Partial Composite Action
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : A common bridge type is the steel-concrete bridge where the concrete deck is built over steel girders. In many earlier designs the bridge type was often built as non-composite, which means that the concrete deck and the steel girder has no shear connection at the steel-concrete interface and therefore bend as individual components.

3. Modelling Time-Dependent Effects for Segmentally Constructed Prestressed Concrete Bridges
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för bygg- och miljöteknologiAbstract : Tidsberoende effekter, såsom krypning, krympning och stålrelaxation, är ofta svåra att prediktera när det kommer till förspända betongkonstruktioner. Krypning som ett fenomen är komplicerat och förenklas därför i gällande byggnormer (Eurocode), för att underlätta konstruktörens arbete. READ MORE

4. Non-Linear FE-Analysis of a Composite Action Girder with Coiled Spring Pins as Shear Connectors
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : For bridges to cope with increased requirements such as increased loads, strengthening work can be carried out. In cases where older steel-concrete bridges do not have a composite action, an alternative is to create composite-action to achieve a higher flexural strength. It is introduced by post-installing shear connectors. READ MORE

5. Analysis of post-tensioned concrete box-girder bridges : A comparison of Incremental launching and Movable scaffolding system
University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnadAbstract : When designing a bridge it is of high importance that the geometry for the cross section is optimized for the structure. This is partly due to the influence of the amount of material needed and its impact on the budget and environment. READ MORE
