A precast segmental concrete bridge pier system is being investigated for use in seismic
regions. The proposed system uses unbonded posttensioning (UBPT) to join the precast …

More extensive use of precast concrete components, which are fabricated off-site and then
connected on-site, could allow bridges to be constructed more rapidly. The increased use of …

Although precast concrete segmental columns have been more and more widely used in
constructions, there is a lack of study on its behaviour under dynamic loading especially …

TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 698: Application
of Accelerated Bridge Construction Connections in Moderate-to-High Seismic Regions …

The monotonic and cyclic behavior of a proposed unbonded, posttensioned concrete bridge
pier system is studied using finite-element analyses. A procedure to evaluate seismic …

The seismic performance and design method of fabricated concrete bridge piers limit their
applications in complex and harsh environments. In this study, a continuous bridge pier in …

With accelerated bridge construction, the precast pier system has been widely applied in
non and low seismic zone, but limited in moderate and high seismic zone by lack of …

Abstract Accelerated Bridge Construction (ABC) offers advantages such as rapid
construction, limited traffic disruption, fast project delivery, cost savings for the formwork …

A novel pocket connection was put forward to be utilized in both ends of a precast bridge
column to connect cap beam and foundation, respectively. The pocket connection adopted …

The wet joint's mechanical performance determines the service performance of the
prefabricated bridge deck. UHPC has an excellent application prospect in the'joint area'of …
