Curved steel bridge research project. by Zureick, Abdul-Hamid.(CARDINAL)308506; Naqib, R.; Yadlosky, John M.(CARDINAL)317088; United States.Federal Highway Administration.(CARDINAL)139839; HDR Engineering.(CARDINAL)205125;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 43-103).Introduction -- Analysis methods -- Curved I-girder bridges -- Curved box girder bridges -- Conclusions and recommendations for further studies -- Appendix A -- References.Interim report;The objectives of the FHWA Curved Steel Bridge Program are (1) to conduct fundamental research into the structural behavior of curved steel flexural members and bridges, and (2) to address construction issues, in order to provide adequate information to develop and clarify design specifications. This program focuses on four areas: (1) synthesis of work that has been done since the Consortium of University Research Teams (CURT) Project; (2) update of the current specification in a load factor design format; (3) conduct of research recommended by Structural Stability Research Council's (SSRC's) Task Group 14 at the April 14-15, 1991 workshop; and (4) development of a load and resistance factor design specification based on research conducted area 3. This report summarizes the results of a comprehensive literature search under the FHWA research program.Performed by HDR Engineering, Inc. under contract no.

Fly ash facts for highway engineers / by United States.Federal Highway Administration.Office of Technology Applications.(CARDINAL)286883; American Coal Ash Association.(CARDINAL)319143;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 69-70).Fly ash as an engineering material -- Frequent applications -- Use in Portland cement concrete -- Use in stabilized road bases -- Use in flowable fill applications -- Use in grouts for concrete pavement subsealing -- Use in fast track concrete pavement -- Use in structural fills/embankments -- References -- Bibliography.Coal fly ash is a coal combustion by-product (CCB) that has numerous applications as an engineering material; the annual production of CCBs is nearly 82 million metric tons (90 million tons). Since the first edition of this publication in 1986, substantial information has been accumulated regarding the use of fly ash. The purpose of this document is to provide technical information about engineering applications to potential users of CCBs and to advance the use of CCBs in ways that are technically sound, commercially competitive, and environmentally safe.Sponsored by the U.S. Dept. of Transportation through the Federal Highway Administration, performed by the American Coal Ash Association, Inc.
