A multi-level strategy for successively improved structural analysis of existing concrete bridges: Examination using a prestressed concrete bridge tested to failure
This paper describes a multi-level strategy with increased complexity through four levels of
structural analysis of concrete bridges. The concept was developed to provide a procedure …

Shear capacity of a RC bridge deck slab: Comparison between multilevel assessment and field test
For reinforced concrete (RC) slabs without shear reinforcement, shear and punching can be
the governing failure mode at the ultimate limit state if subjected to large concentrated loads …
