| Summary: | The structural response of reinforced concrete bridges subjected to loss of concrete under JKR-SV
(Jabatan Kerja Raya - Special Vehicle) loading is presented. The study focuses on the effect of
concrete cracking, spalling and bad concreting on the structural behaviour and performance of a
reinforced concrete beam girder bridge. The effects of the location. length and depth of the
concrete loss, amount of tension steel on the structural performance of the distressed reinforced
concrete bridges have been considered. Non-linear analysis using finite element method (FEM)
has been used to trace the behaviour of reinforced concrete bridges in terms of deflection, strain
and stress distribution and yield load. |
