ABSTRACT In this thesis the reliability analysis of reinforced concrete bridge decks subjected to high cycle fatigue was undertaken. A simply supported (single span) reinforced concrete bridge deck was specifically used for the investigation. The statistical models of capacity loss were derived. The uncertainties in structural resistance and the... Continue Reading

CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY Concrete is a versatile construction material. According to Hasan and Kabir (2011), it is readily available, relatively cheap, flexible to handle and it gives shape and any desired form. The compressive strength is the most critical...

ABSTRACT The importance of concrete in modem society cannot be underestimated. There is no escaping from the impact of concrete on everyday life. Concrete is a composite material which is made of filler and a binder. Typical concrete is a mixture of fine aggregate (sand), coarse aggregate (rock), cement, and water. Nowadays the usage of concrete... Continue Reading
