- Synopsis
- One of the pillars of research activities of Center for Advanced Engineering Structural Assessment and Research (CAESAR) is a "clinical study". And the research utilizing decommissioned bridges is a component of it. In this paper, CAESAR's clinical study is outlined. And as an example of that, load capacity evaluation of reinforced concrete girder damaged due to combined effect is presented.
- Keywords:
- clinical study, decommissioned bridge, load capacity evaluation, chloride induced deterioration
