Forces in Wingwalls from Thermal Expansion of Skewed Semi-Integral Bridges, Executive Summary Report
The main focus of this research project was to utilize the results of field assessments, as well as a computer analysis, in order to achieve the following: (1) Evaluate condition of wingwalls and wall abutments for the bridges instrumented (2) Asses the cause of the observed distress in the walls; (3) Monitor the movement of the bridges due to temperature changes; (4) Begin to develop guidelines to assist in achieving improved design of skewed semi-integral bridges; (5) Improve the understanding of the soil-structure interaction between superstructure, substructure, and embankment soil due to changes in temperature. To investigate these objectives, the two skewed semi-integral bridges located in the northern and central Ohio were instrumented and analyzed in this project.
