专业外文翻译原文road surface of pitch1 Debulk1.1 SummaryGood pitch road surface quality is it reflect , appear any quality defect will all that has been achieved has come to nothing in rolling through rolling to want. The durable performance of meeting pitch road surface of the structure demand is affected by two indexes mainly, namely the mixture and debulk designed. In these two indexes , lack any durable performance that can't ensure the pitch road surface , if insufficient debulk, optimum mixture that design will reduce serviceability , pitch of road surface, and good debulk can improve the result of a kind of nonstandard mixture effectively . So, debulk is considered to influence one of the most important factors of durable performance of road surface of pitch .Debulk course to reduce pitch course , air vent of content in the mixture, for solid particle stemming and orientating among one viscoplasticity medium course this, in the form of forming a kind of closely more knit and more effective particle to arrange. This course only takes place under the construction state in theory, but not under the traffic condition.1.2 Impact on debulk of composition material on the pitch road surface1.2.1collects material performancein order to reach the ideal solidity of pressing, it is very important to collect material and detailed some nature of collecting material thickly: Such as the particle form, raised angle , the absorbing water rate and surface are constructed, grade mix mixture most heavy to collect material size , thick to collect material proportion , consumption and type ,etc. , consumption of sand and powder of ore pigeonhole to pitch mixture solidity have direct influence.Under the same situation as other indexes , collect material one grade of mixture or disconnected grade mixed and mix mixture than exchanging debulk more than the single size from thick to the detailed even grade of mixture mixed , thick to collectmaterial proportion heavy pitch mixture, must increase the strength of keeping notably , could obtain the necessary space rate . On the other hand, many sand, or detailed grade buy bituminous concrete to be very much easy to be plastic, this kind of mixture is still difficult to reach proper closely knit degree. The pitch mixture of much sand tends towards pushes and shoves and difficult with debulking under debulk function . The different kinds of packing has remarkable influence on debulk of the pitch mixture, according to survey, in a situation that other conditions are the same, ordinary silicate packing than lime stone ore powder pitch mixture and cement stone pitch mixture easy debulk bituminous concrete, pitch mixture total hole rate too very heavy difference have behind the shaping, 8% , 9.1% , 12% respectively.1.2.2pitch viscidity influencepitch viscidity influence pitch mixture strength degree, and can debulk nature have something to do with mixture. At the mixture, high viscidity can pin down particle move often as debulk pitch, if pitch viscidity too low, is it collect material to be particle easy to move and push and shove in real time to press. When pitch mixture temperature is higher, pitch is it is it collect material particle rub lubricant of obstruction to overcome to make, when the mixture has already been cooled, the pitch makes and combines the combinationmaterial which is collected the material particle. Generally speaking, in fixed 135 pitch being viscidity high,resistance, mixture of person who reduces space the heavier. So use high viscidity at the pitch , adopt higher debulk temperature to reduce viscidity promote pitch road surface but debulk essential means. Show according to materials data give temperature definitely , low drip of viscidity educate than high closely knit high degree that pitch reach of viscidity, through rise debulk temperature, high viscidity drip is it can reach high solidity of pigeonholing as low viscidity pitch to educate. Therefore understand debulk state , pitch of viscidity under the temperature to promote pitch road surface good debulk there are important meanings.1.2.3 performance of mixture influencein fact, performance , pitch of mixture, influence degree, road surface of debulk the heaviest to pitch, the influence than simple to collect material or drip breedobvious even. When pitch consumption is lower in the pitch mixture easy to is it do astringent , coarse mixture to form, often difficult debulk; When pitch consumption is too great, can form and lubricate the mixture excessivly , make the mixture under the function of the road roller, form unstable and can fracture ing , mixture suffused with the oil after the traffic is open; For lower than best pitch mixture of consumption, can through increase efficiency , debulk of course reduce the space rate, reach a kind of satisfaction; But if pitch consumption at the optimum value of higher thanning , press real-time , can't prevent out of shape limit , pitch of mixture from almost; Secondly , collect material water content meet the requirement of norm minimum while drying, such wet pitch mixture, present the inclination moved in the course of debulk, it is very difficult for the result to press worker.1.3 Temperature impact on pitch roadsurface debulk pitch debulk performance , mixture of road surface receive match ratio design, influence of factor, variety of pitch and temperature ,etc. of debulk, it is the most influential but with debulk temperature. As everyone knows, the properties of pitch and pitch mixture are very sensitive to temperature, is it can know (125C1130 ) in the same grade is it under the mixture , roll rising of temperature at the same time to mix to test. Mixture try on pieces of density increase , air rate reduce , until a certain temperature (145 1150 ) , mixture try on a density up to most heavy, at the same time the air rate is dropped to minimumly . If is it rise to continue under temperature this, can make density reduce, atmosphere rate increases. It is obvious temperature of mixture on the low side on the high side , will influence density and air rate , pitch of mixture (pigeonhole the solidity). The temperature of the pitch mixture is very important too in debulk of the construction site mixture. The temperature of the mixture has already become one of the two major factors influencing the solidity of high pressure of construction site and low air rate. Dark- Kui expressway layers of grains of type in being thick for 4cm the pitch. Construct location windy (4-5), organize the pitch but layer construct in with high temperatures period only, keep temperature bring 80 one 90 up to , make layer receive further debulk the pitch after all.1.4 mechanical impact on pitch roadBecause pitch road surface quality should reflect the mechanical impact on pitch road surface debulk of debulk through rolling finally, so, the selecting type and disposing of debulk machinery seems particularly important. Dark- expressway two bid section (13.4km ) pitch concrete road surface project Kui, construct by Xinjiang the north new construction of road and brige Limited Company, the layers of structure for 6cm thick grains of type grains of grains of type bituminous concrete of the type ten 4cm in the +5cm, the lower floor is the cement stability gravel storey. Each constructed to begin since April of 2000 by the end of September of the same age. Pitch by day work N eight P-1600 for dose rein in 1800 types mix and stir , paver of mixing and stir etc. mixture. According to the regional climate situation of known construction , and mix and stir the productivity of the equipment , paver, transporting the distance and transportation situation, the characteristic of the mixture, pave the thickness, pave layers of location ,etc. , select and make up to the mechanical pattern. Namely use two CC2l a pair of steel and a round of vibration road roller while pressing for the first time , press quietly twice at the speed of 3-5km; When is it press to replying, adopt two CC21 pairs of steel rounds of vibration road roller still, vibration at the speed of 4-5km/11 roll four, dispose the tire road roller of a Model YL16 at the same time, roll twice at the speed of 4-5km/h; After all when pressing, adopt one 2Y8/10 pairs of steel rounds of vibration road roller, at the speed of 3-4km/h quiet to press and accept mere twice. Make from the machinery of the above up and analyse that can be drawn , the having direct relations all over the speed that is counted , rolling with rolling of debulk on the road surface . As thickness , environmental temperature , effective debulk time of paving being when constructing within the person who allow, the ones that rolled would play a decisive role to the debulk of the road surface all over the speed that is counted with rolling.Can know according to experience. The rolls and only fix through testing section all over countinging of pitch road surface, and should also be in the type of the road roller, solidity of pressing, shake frequently under the situation confirmed of valid debulk time of the amplitude , mixture, could get . Can select through conclusion totest section to debulk speed at the same time. By result of the test analyse can know , while rolling all over counting the samly , roll slow than roll speed get high solidity of pigeonholing soon, but it is only higher to press the solidity 0.4-0.8, there is no actual use value, while replying and press and press after all, should try one' s best to choose the high speed of rolling , in order to improve and press the mechanical homework efficiency of the way, reduce its quantity allocated1.5 pitch concrete glueand form analysis and research VFA (pitch consumption) of strength and pitch kind to solve pitch concrete glued and marries the strength problem. Because Marshall's test method has not already accorded with the actual conditions(because the concrete road surface of pitch has been pressed gently by the automobile tire on the real highway, Marshall test hit real number of times whether two sides each hit 75 times, if increase and hit the real number of times at the same time, aggregate break up and break to pieces, but gentle to press and increase aggregate have broken situation take place even quiet year again), so we must solve with other theory pitch concrete oilstone of as with glueing reason of envelope come and explain pitch concrete oil film thickness of as problem we (oilstone than) problem, we spread certain paste to paste while glueing envelopes, with the increase of the pressure, the surplus paste is crowded out, the tighter the envelope mouth is glued, there is the relation between certain pressure and thickness of the paste, the bigger the pressure is, the thinner the thickness of the paste is, it is the bigger to glue the strength of forming. The thickness of oil film of concrete of pitch is the same too, the greater the pressure of rolling the equipment (the tire) adopted when we construct is, keep high temperature for the first time, oil film thickness thin, pitch concrete that form it glues to be heavy to marry strength, this is that the American engineer JOHN.L.MCRAE gentleman's GTM machine rotates the gentle theory of pressing, this GTM testing machine has well solved the equipment (the pressure of the tire) of rolling, rolls the relation that temperature compares with oilstone (the thickness of the oil film). Seeing that of our country large-scale car amount tire pressure up to 1.0 Mpa more than already, propose and use GTM testing machine go on and rotate with 1.0 pressure of Mpa gentle to pigeonhole, temperature130 ∽ 135 when testing, after being steady in order to design the amount of oil used with the oil amount. The on-the-spot construction technological requirement is replied and pigeonholes the temperature after finishing to control above 130 degrees, press and adopt the large tonnage tire road roller for the first time (pressure of tires is more than of 1.0 Mpas).The kind of the pitch and ore material glue the strength of forming influencing the pitch concrete to the seizing of the pitch directly in addition, so the good modified pitch with good resisting splitting at the time of the low temperature at the same time of high-temperature stability has appeared at home, and should deal with the acid and neutral hard quality ore material , improve the seizing, generally adopt and catch the lime wash and is washed or mixed and adds the quick lime powder or low grade cement.2 Pitch preventative maintenance and machinery of concrete road surface2.1 The characteristic of concrete road surface of original sin and type of damagingPitch because concrete road surface use and glue and form strength better pitch material made and combine the material , therefore gluing the strength of forming while strengthening the ore material greatly , has improved the intensity and stability of the mixture, make to use the quality and durability raise road surface . Pitch concrete road surface have surface level, infiltrate, drive a vehicle advantage comfortable, with low noises, therefore find more and more extensive application. But it is often influenced by respects, such as weather, temperature, driving a vehicle and material, and such reasons of the respect as the road surface structure is designed, will present various disease unavoidably, and the disease has brought harmful influence on driving speed, road surface service life, passenger's comfortableness and traffic safety.Pitch damage of concrete road surface overall to can be divided into two big classes, one is structural damage , including the destruction of a certain part whole or among them of structure of road surface , the ones that made road surface unable tosupport and is scheduled loaded; Another functional damage, it might follow and structural damage take place, but because roughness and resisting the decline in slippery performance,etc. make it not have a function booked again, thus influenced quality of driving a vehicle.Pitch early disease of concrete road surface show as early rut and decay of roughness, suffused with oil and resist slippery decline of performance often at expressway, show as early small crack at ordinary arterial highway, detailed material lose cause undisguised, polishes, , the host is lost, surface disease that the road surface infiltrates. That the pitch wears out. If disease the can deal with but develop as one pleases in early days, must lead to the fact surface to be loose further, or cause serious deformation disease, such as peeling off and rut of depth of lower floor. Because of infiltrating, then cause structural damage, such as whole trough, thus must adopt the repairing method to carry on road surface maintenance. So seek one swift helping, cost rational settlement pitch concrete road surface early applicable technology of disease to maintain to be solved problem urgently in the work2.2 Important meaning of preventative maintenanceAround the relation that is built and maintaining, maintaining and preventing, with the constant perfection of the road network, only keep good road surface serviceability for a long time, the huge investment of road construction could give full play to its investment benefit , keep road surface good technological state must have one maintaining and support system come guarantee powerful for a long time, come from this meaning and say , maintain a kind of continuation that is road construction in fact. In the road surface maintains the relation with maintenance, People always get used to it after the road surface begins to be damaged for a long time , just remembers that will carry on maintenance to it, Carry on preventative meaning of maintenance know enough often under being also in good state to road surface. Preventative maintenance is a kind of periodic pressure maintenance measure in fact, it does not consider whether there is a certain damage on the road surface, Preventative maintenance best to implement opportunity should to in good state still in road surface, or go on only at the time of some disease omen .Though preventative maintenance needs to invest some expenses, it is a kind of expenses- benefit than very good maintenance measure. American department mentions in the road surface solution , what the American road industry was once passed to different grades of hundreds of thousands kilometers is followed, find that the serviceability and life-span of these roads have a common change characteristic : A road with qualified quality, performance drops by 40% within service life 75%, called preventative maintenance stage this stage. Such as be unable to in time maintenance, in 12% service life in the time, performance drops by 40% again afterwards, cause and maintain cost increase by a large margin , call that and correct maintenance stage this stages. Count and draw and invest through investigation 1 preventative maintenance fund can economize 3- l0 yuan correct maintenance conclusion of fund each time. U.S.A. SHRP plan one important achievement point out preventative maintenance delay road surface serviceability worsen the speed, lengthen its service life and economize the important meaning of expenses of life cycle.Correct serviceability that implement preventative maintenance and can keep the road surface good , lengthen life cycle of road surface , reduce life cycle expenses and economize and maintain the fund. Plan and estimate according to SHRP , go on preventative maintenance of 3-4 can lengthen 10- 1 years such as service life within life cycle of whole road surface, economize and maintain 45-50% of expenses, these foreign experience of benefitting is worth we drew lessons from . Need emphasize , implement to one- two road preventative maintenance can not give full play to his potential benefit and function only, put it preventative maintenance in network of highways support height of the system pay only, could fully embody its important strategic meaning and function .2.3 Choose suitable preventative maintenance machineryCarry on maintenance promptly when the road surface presents disease omen , make it not happen or continue developing, expanding , influence the stability of the basic unit, should carry on preventative maintenance. Preventative maintenance capital equipment have and irritate and sew machinery, road surface part mend homework machinery, heavy area surface punish machinery, usually.The pressure type irritates the sewing machine: Adopt artificial way to irritate and sew the homework, though can prevent the infiltration of the sub-surface of rainwater , alleviate the development with further crack, but because the sealed material is not irritated deeply enough, it is very difficult to reach the lasting result. Adopt pressure type irritate person who sew can irritate deep layer to reach the crack sealed material, irritate and sew better result , can lengthen service life of road surface , raise and go the security and comfortableness of the vehicle.Irritate and sew homework want and carry on clear to go on and irritate and sew after sewing first generally, greater than 3 crack of mm need and slot the homework generally. Irritate the heating that the sewing machine should be furnished with the control device of pressure, sealed material mainly or keep the device warm, for prevent spray gun hose from stop up and should take corresponding heating, keep measure warm also. The main characteristic of the pulling type is: Heat storehouse volume 470L, relatively more complete function havesuitable for irritating and sewing the homework by a large scale. Pair set up yuans of hand person who push away hot to irritate heating storehouse of person who sew volume 40 L, small easy to operate using flexible, low fabrication cost company, can look at according to work load feeling worthy of and heat cauldron again separately, suitable for hot to caulk the irritating and sewing the homework of material mainly; Have function cold to irritate person who sew without heating, use polymer modify water quality caulk the material mainly. If department pitch cold to irritate and sew material to modify emulsification, as emulsification after the solidification pitch, the modified pitch and crack of high polymer are glued and formed closely, can guarantee that there is good strength of seizing to irritate and sew the material and crack . Because cold to irritate and sew simple, easy to use craft, road surface give person who defend maintenance have wide prospects in pitch.Mend the hole machine in spraying type: Person who spray pitch road surface mend technology one high-efficient mending road surface hole maintenance technology of pool fast, cardinal principle to utilize way of spaying with high presure , mix emulsification pitch that heat already through nozzle with conveyer belt dept. oforthopedics come to convey, spray the mixture to the hole pool of road surface evenly through the compressed air at a high speed, because passing through function reaches and glues the result formed closely knitly. Because craft simple, need and go on and roll again, mend hole short activity duration, can open traffic quickly.Hope that you remember my result every day. Car chassis (or pulling type); Pitch pot of emulsification and heating and keep the device warm, sending the pipeline; The aggregate stores the storehouse and conveyer belt; The cleaner stores the pot; Liquor pressure drive; Air compressor machine and nozzlemake up . In pool go on and clear up, after repairing, attenbant need and know one nozzle (operate button at nozzle handle) can finish the hole pool of road surface mend the homework only to hole. Should pay attention to controlling the quality of the good aggregate and grading in using; Choose the broken milk tempo of the good emulsification pitch ; Grasp the spraying amount and so as to ensure roughness of road surface after mending, Mend machinery in hot regeneration of road surface : For economize valuable way spend material, reduce and mill old material pollution of the environment these come down to plane, many place popularize old way spend regeneration of material, pitch hot recycled craft because with cold to mill- factory mix recycled craft compare on the spot among them in a more cost-effective manner, reduce old material freight and factory mix regeneration need use continuous type to mix and stir the reasons, such as equipment. Generally, the maintenance of the expressway is widely used with maintaining in JiangsuProvince. Reach materials that company offer according to Great Britain, " repair the roads king " its mend method compare with traditional method, it can save 5/6 to mend time, personnel save 1/2 for homework, the old way totally utilizes with the material, new pitch mixture consumption can save 1/2 .Hot recycled key part of equipment to heat board mainly on the spot, it want offer high-efficient heat energy of radiating, heat and should short time to old road surface have, and reach certain depth; Can't be overheated, make the pitch wear out , lose the recycled meaning. Great Britain reach company repair the roads king heat board take interval heating way, can one is penetrated to the road surface deep layer, and road surface top layer pitch wear out again and hotly, well solve this problem . Inaddition according to mend area of uniform size, heat board it's better to have the sub-zone function.The rare thick liquid seals one layer of pitch rare thick liquid of emulsification with modifying and seals one layer of pavers: Rare thick liquid seal layers of technology to new, old wear out, crack, smooth loose of road surface, hole trough. Disease can play prevent and function of maintenance, make road surface waterproof, resist slippery, levels, wear-resisting performance is raised rapidly. In recent years, because rare thick liquid seal layers of standardization that construct, standardize, construction quality raise and reducing of cost, rare thick liquid seal layer apply common road and expressway maintained and had in early days extensively already.Modify emulsification pitch rare thick liquid seal layer modify emulsification pitch with roll and break to pieces by water quality high polymer intensive material, mineral packing, water and surface that additive make up punish layer one, can pave the thin layer , solidify fast, can open traffic in an hour after constructing in characteristic, because modify the pitch rare thick liquid of emulsification seal one layer of solidification time faster than the ordinary rare thick liquid, modify emulsification pitch rare thick liquid seal layer can seal than traditional rare thick liquid layer thick. Used in the punishment of constructing disease, such as repairing, chap, rut, etc. of road surface mainly, can be used for sealing and improving resisting slippery punishment of road surface. But modify the pitch rare thick liquid of emulsification is the same as other thin layers are punished, only have highway section with steady structure now suitably, must construct after mending strongly when curved sinking value is not enough. Guarantee modify emulsification pitch there aren't the thick liquid not rares. Modify emulsification pitch rare thick liquid material viscidity heavy, pave layer relatively thick, generally speaking, modify emulsification pitch raise than the emulsification pitch viscidity not modifying by 30-50%, result in and make obstruction heavy thick liquid, the speed slows down. Demand and modify emulsification pitch rare thick liquid seal layers of equipment device corresponding to strengthen power store to make thick liquid, cloth fast, mobility fine, cloth speed pave range that the thickness regulate heavy, in order to meet modifying the constructionrequest for sealing layer of rare thick liquid of pitch of emulsification.The pitch road surface maintains machinery and cares the car synthetically, cares the car etc. multi-functionally, have given play to one's own characteristics in the maintenance of the superhighway. As the constant increase,, especially the expressway of the superhighway increase, and the constant innovation on maintenance work craft and material , the mechanical manufacturer to maintaining , including the respects, such as designing, making, after-sale service. Put forward higher and higher request. Too should maintain mechanical applying unit from maintenance, quality of attenbant of equipment, maintenance exertion of material,etc. pays enough attention, it is in many aspects to accomplish, multi-disciplinary close cooperation, could promote the preventative maintenance mechanized development of the highway to the maximum extent .3 pitch concrete road surface in constructing1.one of precautions infiltrate, design and grade kind pitch concrete match ratio very in theory in constructing, in not butting if can't construct it guarantee by pitch concrete homogeneity(include and grade and last homogeneity that shut pitch , homogeneity that pave, roll homogeneity of shaping), pitch concrete road surface equally will produce infiltrate, purt thick liquid, rut, suffused with oil,etc. destroy the phenomenon in early days. Stone fit expressway pitch concrete finish adopt many broken stone pitch concrete (SAC) make finish structure, SAC structure does not infiltrate theoretically, and have good resisting the slipping and temperature stability, can meet and construct TD of depth > request for 0.7mm, why is it very good in some paragraphs on the line of Ann of stone, some paragraph very serious to destroy phenomenon in early days, main reason to guarantee pitch concrete homogeneity of road surface and pigeonhole solidity, pursue the roughness to cause excessivly. Guarantee pitch homogeneity of concrete and pigeonhole solidity key problem very in constructing. Sand celebrate academician Lin in " expressway pitch road surface destroy phenomenon with predict " book chapter ten describe to pitch concrete importance of homogeneity specially " in early days. Only brief here to sum up the。

It is made of the roadbed, the road surface, the bridge, the culvert and the tunnel. In addition, it also has the crossingof lines, the protective project and the traffic engineeringand the route facility.The roadbed is the base of road surface, road shoulder,side slope, side ditch foundations. It is stone material structure, which is designed according to route's planeposition .The roadbed, as the base of travel, must guaranteethat it has the enough intensity and the stability that can prevent the water and other natural disaster from corroding.The road surface is the surface of road. It is single or complex structure built with mixture. The road surface require being smooth, having enough intensity, good stability and anti-slippery function. The quality of road surface directly affects the safe, comfort and the traffic.Highway geometry designs to consider Highway Horizontal Alignment, Vertical Alignment two kinds of linear and cross-sectional composition of coordination, but also pay attentionto the smooth flow of the line of sight, etc. Determine theroad geometry, consider the topography, surface features,rational use of land and environmental protection factors, to make full use of the highway geometric components of reasonable size and the linear combination.DesignThe alignment of a road is shown on the plane view and is a series of straight lines called tangents connected by circular. In modern practice it is common to interpose transition orspiral curves between tangents and circular curves.Alignment must be consistent. Sudden changes from flat to sharp curves and long tangents followed by sharp curves must be avoided; otherwise, accident hazards will be created. Likewise, placing circular curves of different radii end to end (compound curves) or having a short tangent between two curves is poor practice unless suitable transitions between them are provided. Long, flat curves are preferable at all times, as they are pleasing in appearance and decrease possibility of future obsolescence. However, alignment without tangents is undesirable on two-lane roads because some drivers hesitate to pass on curves. Long, flat curves should be used for small changes in dir ection, as short curves appear as “kink”. Also horizontal and vertical alignment must be considered together, not separately. For example, a sharp horizontal curve beginning near a crest can create a serious accident hazard.A vehicle traveling in a curved path is subject to centrifugal force. This is balanced by an equal and opposite force developed through cannot exceed certain maximums, and these controls place limits on the sharpness of curves that can be used with a design speed. Usually the sharpness of a given circular curve is indicated by its radius. However, for alignment design, sharpness is commonly expressed in terms of degree of curve, which is the central angle subtended by a 100-ft length of curve. Degree of curve is inversely proportional to the radius.Tangent sections of highways carry normal cross slope; curved sections are super elevated. Provision must be made for gradual change from one to the other. This usually involves maintaining the center line of each individual roadway at profile grade while raising the outer edge and lowering theinner edge to produce the desired super elevation is attained some distance beyond the point of curve.If a vehicle travels at high speed on a carefullyrestricted path made up of tangents connected by sharp circular curve, riding is extremely uncomfortable. As the car approaches a curve, super elevation begins and the vehicle is tilted inward, but the passenger must remain vertical since there is on centrifugal force requiring compensation. When the vehicle reaches the curve, full centrifugal force develops at once, and pulls the rider outward from his vertical position. To achieve a position of equilibrium he must force his body far inward. As the remaining super elevation takes effect, further adjustment in position is required. This process is repeated in reverse order as the vehicle leaves the curve. When easement curves are introduced, the change in radius from infinity on the tangent to that of the circular curve is effected gradually so that centrifugal force also develops gradually. By careful application of super elevation along the spiral, a smooth and gradual application of centrifugal force can be had and the roughness avoided.Easement curves have been used by the railroads for many years, but their adoption by highway agencies has come only recently. This is understandable. Railroad trains must follow the precise alignment of the tracks, and the discomfort described here can be avoided only by adopting easement curves. On the other hand, the motor-vehicle operator is free to alter his lateral position on the road and can provide his own easement curves by steering into circular curves gradually. However, this weaving within a traffic lane (but sometimes into other lanes) is dangerous. Properly designed easement curves make weaving unnecessary. It is largely for safety reasons,then, that easement curves have been widely adopted by highway agencies.For the same radius circular curve, the addition ofeasement curves at the ends changes the location of the curve with relation to its tangents; hence the decision regardingtheir use should be made before the final location survey. They point of beginning of an ordinary circular curve is usually labeled the PC (point of curve) or BC (beginning of curve). Its end is marked the PT (point of tangent) or EC (end of curve).For curves that include easements, the common notation is, as stationing increases: TS (tangent to spiral), SC (spiral to circular curve), CS (circular curve to spiral), and ST (spiralgo tangent).On two-lane pavements provision of a wilder roadway is advisable on sharp curves. This will allow for such factors as(1) the tendency for drivers to shy away from the pavement edge,(2) increased effective transverse vehicle width because thefront and rear wheels do not track, and (3) added width because of the slanted position of the front of the vehicle to the roadway centerline. For 24-ft roadways, the added width is so small that it can be neglected. Only for 30mph design speedsand curves sharper than 22°does the added width reach 2 ft.For narrower pavements, however, widening assumes importance even on fairly flat curves. Recommended amounts of and procedures for curve widening are given in Geometric Design for Highways.2. GradesThe vertical alignment of the roadway and its effect on the safe and economical operation of the motor vehicle constituteone of the most important features of road design. The vertical alignment, which consists of a series of straight linesconnected by vertical parabolic or circular curves, is known as the “grade line.” When the grade line is increasing from the horizontal it is known as a “plus grade,” and when it is decreasing from the horizontal it is known as a “minusgrade.” In analyzing grade and grade controls, the designer usually studies the effect of change in grade on the centerline profile.In the establishment of a grade, an ideal situation is onein which the cut is balanced against the fill without a great deal of borrow or an excess of cut to be wasted. All haulsshould be downhill if possible and not too long. The gradeshould follow the general terrain and rise and fall in the direction of the existing drainage. In mountainous country the grade may be set to balance excavation against embankment as a clue toward least overall cost. In flat or prairie country itwill be approximately parallel to the ground surface but sufficiently above it to allow surface drainage and, where necessary, to permit the wind to clear drifting snow. Where the road approaches or follows along streams, the height of thegrade line may be dictated by the expected level of flood water. Under all conditions, smooth, flowing grade lines arepreferable to choppy ones of many short straight sections connected with short vertical curves.Changes of grade from plus to minus should be placed in cuts, and changes from a minus grade to a plus grade should be placed in fills. This will generally give a good design, and many times it will avoid the appearance of building hills and producing depressions contrary to the general existing contours of the land. Other considerations for determining the gradeline may be of more importance than the balancing of cuts and fills.Urban projects usually require a more detailed study of the controls and finer adjustment of elevations than do rural projects. It is often best to adjust the grade to meet existing conditions because of the additional expense of doing otherwise.In the analysis of grade and grade control, one of the most important considerations is the effect of grades on the operating costs of the motor vehicle. An increase in gasoline consumption and a reduction in speed are apparent when grades are increase in gasoline consumption and a reduction in speedis apparent when grades are increased. An economical approach would be to balance the added annual cost of grade reduction against the added annual cost of vehicle operation withoutgrade reduction. An accurate solution to the problem depends on the knowledge of traffic volume and type, which can be obtained only by means of a traffic survey.While maximum grades vary a great deal in various states, AASHTO recommendations make maximum grades dependent on design speed and topography. Present practice limits grades to 5 percent of a design speed of 70 mph. For a design speed of 30 mph, maximum grades typically range from 7 to 12 percent, depending on topography. Wherever long sustained grades are used, the designer should not substantially exceed the critical length of grade without the provision of climbing lanes forslow-moving vehicles. Critical grade lengths vary from 1700 ft for a 3 percent grade to 500 ft for an 8 percent grade.Long sustained grades should be less than the maximum grade on any particular section of a highway. It is often preferredto break the long sustained uniform grade by placing steeper grades at the bottom and lightening the grade near the top of the ascent. Dips in the profile grade in which vehicles may be hidden from view should also be avoided. Maximum grade forhighway is 9 percent. Standards setting minimum grades are of importance only when surface drainage is a problem as when water must be carried away in a gutter or roadside ditch. In such instances the AASHTO suggests a minimum of %.3. Sight DistanceFor safe vehicle operation, highway must be designed to give drivers a sufficient distance or clear version ahead so that they can avoid unexpected obstacles and can pass slowervehicles without danger. Sight distance is the length of highway visible ahead to the driver of a vehicle. The conceptof safe sight distance has two facets: “stopping” (or “no passing”) and “passing”.At times large objects may drop into a roadway and will do serious damage to a motor vehicle that strikes them. Again a car or truck may be forced to stop in the traffic lane in the path of following vehicles. In dither instance, proper design requires that such hazards become visible at distances great enough that drivers can stop before hitting them. Further more, it is unsafe to assume that one oncoming vehicle may avoid trouble by leaving the lane in which it is traveling, for this might result in loss of control or collision with another vehicle.Stopping sight distance is made up of two elements. Thefirst is the distance traveled after the obstruction comes into view but before the driver applies his brakes. During this period of perception and reaction, the vehicle travels at its initial velocity. The second distance is consumed while the driver brakes the vehicle to a stop. The first of these two distances is dependent on the speed of the vehicle and the perception time and brake-reaction time of the operator. The second distance depends on the speed of the vehicle; thecondition of brakes, times, and roadway surface; and the alignment and grade of the highway.On two-lane highways, opportunity to pass slow-moving vehicles must be provided at intervals. Otherwise capacity decreases and accidents increase as impatient drivers risk head-on collisions by passing when it is unsafe to do so. The minimum distance ahead that must be clear to permit safe passing is called the passing sight distance. In deciding whether or not to pass another vehicle, the driver must weigh the clear distance available to him against the distance required to carry out the sequence of events that make up the passing maneuver. Among the factors that will influence his decision are the degree of caution that he exercises and the accelerating ability of his vehicle. Because humans differ markedly, passing practices, which depend largely on human judgment and behavior rather than on the laws of mechanics, vary considerably among drivers.The geometric design is to ensure highway traffic safety foundation, the highway construction projects around the other highway on geometric design, therefore, in the geometry of the highway design process, if appear any unsafe potential factors, or low levels of combination of design, will affect the whole highway geometric design quality, and the safety of the traffic to bring adverse impact. So, on the geometry of the highway design must be focus on.公路几何设计公路是供汽车或其他车辆行驶的一种线形带状结构体。

附录附录A 外文翻译第一部分英文原文4.2.2 Model that Failed in Punching ShearIt was realized that complete restraint in both the longitudinal and transversedirections is necessary for the development of the internal arching system in the deck slab. With this realization,another half-scale model of a two-girder bridge was built. This model also had a deck slab reinforced only by polypropylene fibres, and was very similar to the previous one, the main difference being that the top flangesof the girders were now interconnected by transverse steel straps lying outside the deck slab. A view of the steel work of this model can be seen in Fig. 4.7.These straps were provided so as to serve as transverse ties to the internal arch in the slab.The 100 mm thick slab of the model with transverse straps failed under a central load of 418 kN in a punching-shear failure mode. As can be seen in Fig. 4.8, the damaged area of the slab was highly localized. It can be appreciated that with such a high failure load, the thin deck slab of the half-scale model could have easily withstood the weights of even the heaviest wheel load of commercial vehicles.The model tests described above and in sub-section 4.2.1 clearly demonstrate that an internal arching action will indeed develop in a deck slab, but only if it is suitably restrained.4.2.3 Edge StiffeningA further appreciation of the deck slab arching action is provided by tests on a scale model of a skew slab-on-girder bridge. As will be discussed in sub-section 4.4.2, one transverse free edge of the deck slab of this model was stiffened by a composite steel channel with its web in the vertical plane. The other free edge was stiffened by a steel channel diaphragm with its web horizontal and connected to the deck slab through shear connectors. The deck slab near the former transverse edge failed in a mode that was a hybrid between punching shear and flexure. Tests near the composite diaphragm led to failure at a much higher load in punching shear (Bakht and Agarwal, 1993).The above tests confirmed yet again that the presence of the internal arching action in deck slabs induces high in-plane force effects which in turn demand stiffer restraint in the plane of the deck than in the out-of-plane direction.4.3 INTERNALLY RESTRAINED DECK SLABSDeck slabs which require embedded reinforcement for strength will now be referred to as internally restrained deck slabs. The state-of-art up to 1986 relating to the quantification and utilization of the beneficial internal arching action in deck slabs with steel reinforcement has been provided by Bakht and Markovic (1986). Their conclusions complemented with up-to-date information are presented in this chapter in a generally chronological order which, however, cannot be adhered to rigidlybecause of the simultaneous occurrence of some developments.4.3.1 Static Tests on Scale ModelsAbout three decades ago, the Structures Research Office of the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario (MTO), Canada, sponsored an extensive laboratory-based research program into the load carrying capacity of deck slabs; this research program was carried out at Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario. Most of this research was conducted through static tests on scale models of slab-on-girder bridges. This pioneering work is reported by Hewitt and Batchelor (1975) and later by Batchelor et al. (1985), and is summarized in the following.The inability of the concrete to sustain tensile strains, which leads to cracking, has been shown to be the main attribute which causes the compressive membrane forces to develop. This phenomenon is illustrated in Fig. 4.9 (a) which shows the part cross-section of slab-on-girder bridge under the action of a concentrated load.The cracking of the concrete, as shown in the figure, results in a net compressive force near the bottom face of the slab at each of the two girder locations. Midway between the girders, the net compressive force moves towards the top of the slab. It can be readily visualized that the transition of the net compressive force from near the top in the middle region, to near the bottom at the supports corresponds to the familiar arching action. Because of this internal arching action, the failure mode of a deck slab under a concentrated load becomes that of punching shear.If the material of the deck slab has the same stress-strain characteristics in both tension and compression, the slab will not crack and, as shown in Fig. 4.9 (b), will not develop the net compressive force and hence the arching action.In the punching shear type of failure, a frustum separates from the rest of the slab, as shown in schematically in Fig. 4.10. It is noted that in most failure tests, the diameter of the lower end of the frustrum extends to the vicinity of the girders.From analytical and confirmatory laboratory studies, it was established that the most significant factor influencing the failure load of a concrete deck slab is the confinement of the panel under consideration. It was concluded that this confinement is provided by the expanse of the slab beyond the loaded area; its degree was founddifficult to assess analytically. A restraint factor, η, was used as an empirical measure of the confinement; its value is equal to zero for the case of no confinement and 1.0 for full confinement.The effect of various parameters on the failure load can be seen in Table 4.1, which lists the theoretical failure loads for various cases. It can be seen that an increase of the restraint factor from 0.0 to 0.5 results in a very large increase in the failure load. The table also emphasizes the fact that neglect of the restraint factor causes a gross underestimation of the failure load.It was concluded that design for flexure leads to the inclusion of large amounts of unnecessary steel reinforcement in the deck slabs, and that even the minimum amount of steel required for crack control against volumetric changes in concrete is adequate to sustain modern-day, and even future, highway vehicles of North America.It was recommended that for new construction, the reinforcement in a deck slab should be in two layers, with each layer consisting of an orthogonal mesh having the same area of reinforcement in each direction. The area of steel reinforcement in each direction of a mesh was suggested to be 0.2% of the effective area of cross-section of the slab. This empirical method of design was recommended for deck slabs with certain constraints.4.3.2 Pulsating Load Tests on Scale ModelsTo study the fatigue strength of deck slabs with reduced reinforcement, five small scale models with different reinforcement ratios in different panels were tested at the Queen's University at Kingston. Details of this study are reported by Batchelor et al. (1978).Experimental investigation confirmed that for loads normally encountered in North America deck slabs with both conventional and recommended reducedreinforcement have large reserve strengths against failure by fatigue. It was confirmed that the reinforcement in the deck slab should be as noted in sub-section 4.3.1. It is recalled that the 0.2% reinforcement requires that the deck slab must have a minimum restraint factor of 0.5.The work of Okada, et al. (1978) also deals with fatigue tests on full scale models of deck slabs and segments of severely cracked slab removed from eight to ten year old bridges. The application of these test results to deck slabs of actual bridges is open to question because test specimens were removed from the original structures in such a way that they did not retain the confinement necessary for the development of the arching action.4.3.3 Field TestingAlong with the studies described in the preceding sub-section, a program of field testing of the deck slabs of in-service bridges was undertaken by the Structures Research Office of the MTO. The testing consisted of subjecting deck slabs to single concentrated loads, simulating wheel loads, and monitoring the load-deflection characteristics of the slab. The testing is reported by Csagoly et al. (1978) and details of the testing equipment are given by Bakht and Csagoly (1979).Values of the restraint factor, η, were back-calculated from measured deflections.A summary of test results, given in Table 4.2, shows that the average value of η in composite bridges is greater than 0.75, while that for non-composite bridges is 0.42. It was concluded that for new construction, the restraint factor, η, can be assumed to have a minimum value of 0.5.Bakht (1981) reports that after the first application of a test load of high magnitude on deck slabs of existing bridges, a small residual deflection was observed in most cases. Subsequent applications of the same load did not result in further residual deflections. It is postulated that the residual deflections are caused by cracking of the concrete which, as discussed earlier, accompanies the development of the internal arching action. The residual deflections after the first cycle of loading suggest that either the slab was never subjected to loads high enough to cause cracking, or the cracks have 'healed' with time.第二部分汉语翻译4.2.2 在冲切剪应力下的实效模型我们已经知道在桥面板内部拱形系统的形成中，不仅纵向而且横向也被完全约束限制是完全必要的。

桥梁工程中英文对照外文翻译文献BRIDGE ENGINEERING AND AESTHETICSEvolvement of bridge Engineering,brief reviewAmong the early documented reviews of construction materials and structu re types are the books of Marcus Vitruvios Pollio in the first century B.C.The basic principles of statics were developed by the Greeks , and were exemplifi ed in works and applications by Leonardo da Vinci,Cardeno,and Galileo.In the fifteenth and sixteenth century, engineers seemed to be unaware of this record , and relied solely on experience and tradition for building bridges and aqueduc ts .The state of the art changed rapidly toward the end of the seventeenth cent ury when Leibnitz, Newton, and Bernoulli introduced mathematical formulatio ns. Published works by Lahire (1695)and Belidor (1792) about the theoretical a nalysis of structures provided the basis in the field of mechanics of materials .Kuzmanovic(1977) focuses on stone and wood as the first bridge-building materials. Iron was introduced during the transitional period from wood to steel .According to recent records , concrete was used in France as early as 1840 for a bridge 39 feet (12 m) long to span the Garoyne Canal at Grisoles, but r einforced concrete was not introduced in bridge construction until the beginnin g of this century . Prestressed concrete was first used in 1927.Stone bridges of the arch type (integrated superstructure and substructure) were constructed in Rome and other European cities in the middle ages . Thes e arches were half-circular , with flat arches beginning to dominate bridge wor k during the Renaissance period. This concept was markedly improved at the e nd of the eighteenth century and found structurally adequate to accommodate f uture railroad loads . In terms of analysis and use of materials , stone bridgeshave not changed much ,but the theoretical treatment was improved by introd ucing the pressure-line concept in the early 1670s(Lahire, 1695) . The arch the ory was documented in model tests where typical failure modes were considere d (Frezier,1739).Culmann(1851) introduced the elastic center method for fixed-e nd arches, and showed that three redundant parameters can be found by the us e of three equations of coMPatibility.Wooden trusses were used in bridges during the sixteenth century when P alladio built triangular frames for bridge spans 10 feet long . This effort also f ocused on the three basic principles og bridge design : convenience(serviceabili ty) ,appearance , and endurance(strength) . several timber truss bridges were co nstructed in western Europe beginning in the 1750s with spans up to 200 feet (61m) supported on stone substructures .Significant progress was possible in t he United States and Russia during the nineteenth century ,prompted by the ne ed to cross major rivers and by an abundance of suitable timber . Favorable e conomic considerations included initial low cost and fast construction .The transition from wooden bridges to steel types probably did not begin until about 1840 ,although the first documented use of iron in bridges was the chain bridge built in 1734 across the Oder River in Prussia . The first truss completely made of iron was in 1840 in the United States , followed by Eng land in 1845 , Germany in 1853 , and Russia in 1857 . In 1840 , the first ir on arch truss bridge was built across the Erie Canal at Utica .The Impetus of AnalysisThe theory of structures ,developed mainly in the ninetheenth century,foc used on truss analysis, with the first book on bridges written in 1811. The Wa rren triangular truss was introduced in 1846 , supplemented by a method for c alculating the correcet forces .I-beams fabricated from plates became popular in England and were used in short-span bridges.In 1866, Culmann explained the principles of cantilever truss bridges, an d one year later the first cantilever bridge was built across the Main River in Hassfurt, Germany, with a center span of 425 feet (130m) . The first cantilever bridge in the United States was built in 1875 across the Kentucky River.A most impressive railway cantilever bridge in the nineteenth century was the Fir st of Forth bridge , built between 1883 and 1893 , with span magnitudes of 1 711 feet (521.5m).At about the same time , structural steel was introduced as a prime mater ial in bridge work , although its quality was often poor . Several early exampl es are the Eads bridge in St.Louis ; the Brooklyn bridge in New York ; and t he Glasgow bridge in Missouri , all completed between 1874 and 1883.Among the analytical and design progress to be mentioned are the contrib utions of Maxwell , particularly for certain statically indeterminate trusses ; the books by Cremona (1872) on graphical statics; the force method redefined by Mohr; and the works by Clapeyron who introduced the three-moment equation s.The Impetus of New MaterialsSince the beginning of the twentieth century , concrete has taken its place as one of the most useful and important structural materials . Because of the coMParative ease with which it can be molded into any desired shape , its st ructural uses are almost unlimited . Wherever Portland cement and suitable agg regates are available , it can replace other materials for certain types of structu res, such as bridge substructure and foundation elements .In addition , the introduction of reinforced concrete in multispan frames at the beginning of this century imposed new analytical requirements . Structures of a high order of redundancy could not be analyzed with the classical metho ds of the nineteenth century .The importance of joint rotation was already dem onstrated by Manderla (1880) and Bendixen (1914) , who developed relationshi ps between joint moments and angular rotations from which the unknown mom ents can be obtained ,the so called slope-deflection method .More simplification s in frame analysis were made possible by the work of Calisev (1923) , who used successive approximations to reduce the system of equations to one simpl e expression for each iteration step . This approach was further refined and integrated by Cross (1930) in what is known as the method of moment distributi on .One of the most import important recent developments in the area of anal ytical procedures is the extension of design to cover the elastic-plastic range , also known as load factor or ultimate design. Plastic analysis was introduced with some practical observations by Tresca (1846) ; and was formulated by Sa int-Venant (1870) , The concept of plasticity attracted researchers and engineers after World War Ⅰ, mainly in Germany , with the center of activity shifting to England and the United States after World War Ⅱ.The probabilistic approa ch is a new design concept that is expected to replace the classical determinist ic methodology.A main step forward was the 1969 addition of the Federal Highway Adim inistration (FHWA)”Criteria for Reinforced Concrete Bridge Members “ that co vers strength and serviceability at ultimate design . This was prepared for use in conjunction with the 1969 American Association of State Highway Offficials (AASHO) Standard Specification, and was presented in a format that is readil y adaptable to the development of ultimate design specifications .According to this document , the proportioning of reinforced concrete members ( including c olumns ) may be limited by various stages of behavior : elastic , cracked , an d ultimate . Design axial loads , or design shears . Structural capacity is the r eaction phase , and all calculated modified strength values derived from theoret ical strengths are the capacity values , such as moment capacity ,axial load ca pacity ,or shear capacity .At serviceability states , investigations may also be n ecessary for deflections , maximum crack width , and fatigue .Bridge TypesA notable bridge type is the suspension bridge , with the first example bu ilt in the United States in 1796. Problems of dynamic stability were investigate d after the Tacoma bridge collapse , and this work led to significant theoretica l contributions Steinman ( 1929 ) summarizes about 250 suspension bridges bu ilt throughout the world between 1741 and 1928 .With the introduction of the interstate system and the need to provide stru ctures at grade separations , certain bridge types have taken a strong place in bridge practice. These include concrete superstructures (slab ,T-beams,concrete b ox girders ), steel beam and plate girders , steel box girders , composite const ruction , orthotropic plates , segmental construction , curved girders ,and cable-stayed bridges . Prefabricated members are given serious consideration , while interest in box sections remains strong .Bridge Appearance and AestheticsGrimm ( 1975 ) documents the first recorded legislative effort to control t he appearance of the built environment . This occurred in 1647 when the Cou ncil of New Amsterdam appointed three officials . In 1954 , the Supreme Cou rt of the United States held that it is within the power of the legislature to de termine that communities should be attractive as well as healthy , spacious as well as clean , and balanced as well as patrolled . The Environmental Policy Act of 1969 directs all agencies of the federal government to identify and dev elop methods and procedures to ensure that presently unquantified environmenta l amentities and values are given appropriate consideration in decision making along with economic and technical aspects .Although in many civil engineering works aesthetics has been practiced al most intuitively , particularly in the past , bridge engineers have not ignored o r neglected the aesthetic disciplines .Recent research on the subject appears to lead to a rationalized aesthetic design methodology (Grimm and Preiser , 1976 ) .Work has been done on the aesthetics of color ,light ,texture , shape , and proportions , as well as other perceptual modalities , and this direction is bot h theoretically and empirically oriented .Aesthetic control mechanisms are commonly integrated into the land-use re gulations and design standards . In addition to concern for aesthetics at the sta te level , federal concern focuses also on the effects of man-constructed enviro nment on human life , with guidelines and criteria directed toward improving quality and appearance in the design process . Good potential for the upgrading of aesthetic quality in bridge superstructures and substructures can be seen in the evaluation structure types aimed at improving overall appearance .Lords and lording groupsThe loads to be considered in the design of substructures and bridge foun dations include loads and forces transmitted from the superstructure, and those acting directly on the substructure and foundation .AASHTO loads . Section 3 of AASHTO specifications summarizes the loa ds and forces to be considered in the design of bridges (superstructure and sub structure ) . Briefly , these are dead load ,live load , iMPact or dynamic effec t of live load , wind load , and other forces such as longitudinal forces , cent rifugal force ,thermal forces , earth pressure , buoyancy , shrinkage and long t erm creep , rib shortening , erection stresses , ice and current pressure , collisi on force , and earthquake stresses .Besides these conventional loads that are ge nerally quantified , AASHTO also recognizes indirect load effects such as fricti on at expansion bearings and stresses associated with differential settlement of bridge components .The LRFD specifications divide loads into two distinct cate gories : permanent and transient .Permanent loadsDead Load : this includes the weight DC of all bridge components , appu rtenances and utilities, wearing surface DW nd future overlays , and earth fill EV. Both AASHTO and LRFD specifications give tables summarizing the unit weights of materials commonly used in bridge work .Transient LoadsVehicular Live Load (LL) Vehicle loading for short-span bridges :considera ble effort has been made in the United States and Canada to develop a live lo ad model that can represent the highway loading more realistically than the H or the HS AASHTO models . The current AASHTO model is still the applica ble loading.桥梁工程和桥梁美学桥梁工程的发展概况早在公元前1世纪，Marcus Vitrucios Pollio 的著作中就有关于建筑材料和结构类型的记载和评述。

It can cover a range of spans from25 m up to the largest non—suspended concrete decks built, of the order of 300 m。
Single box girders may also carry decks up to 30 m wide。
For the longer span beams, beyond about 50 m，they are practically the only feasible deck section. For the shorter spans they are in competition with most of the other deck types discussed in this book.The advantages of the box form are principally its high structural efficiency （5.4），which minimises the prestress force required to resist a given bending moment，and its great torsional strength with the capacity this gives to re—centre eccentric live loads，minimising the prestress required to carry them。
The box form lends itself to many of the highly productive methods of bridge construction that have been progressively refined over the last 50 years，such as precast segmental construction with or without epoxy resin in the joints，balanced cantilever erection either cast in—situ or coupled with precast segmental construction, and incremental launching （Chapter 15)。

附录一英文翻译原文AUTOMATIC DEFLECTION AND TEMPERATURE MONITORING OFA BALANCED CANTILEVER CONCRETE BRIDGEby Olivier BURDET, Ph.D.Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne, SwitzerlandInstitute of Reinforced and Prestressed Concrete SUMMARYThere is a need for reliable monitoring systems to follow the evolution of the behavior of structures over time.Deflections and rotations are values that reflect the overall structure behavior. This paper presents an innovative approach to the measurement of long-term deformations of bridges by use of inclinometers. High precision electronic inclinometers can be used to follow effectively long-term rotations without disruption of the traffic. In addition to their accuracy, these instruments have proven to be sufficiently stable over time and reliable for field conditions. The Mentue bridges are twin 565 m long box-girder post-tensioned concrete highway bridges under construction in Switzerland. The bridges are built by the balanced cantilever method over a deep valley. The piers are 100 m high and the main span is 150 m. A centralized data acquisition system was installed in one bridge during its construction in 1997. Every minute, the system records the rotation and temperature at a number of measuring points. The simultaneous measurement of rotations and concrete temperature at several locations gives a clear idea of the movements induced by thermal conditions. The system will be used in combination with a hydrostatic leveling setup to follow the long-term behavior of the bridge. Preliminary results show that the system performs reliably and that the accuracy of the sensors is excellent.Comparison of the evolution of rotations and temperature indicate that the structure responds to changes in air temperature rather quickly.1.BACKGROUNDAll over the world, the number of structures in service keeps increasing. With the development of traffic and the increased dependence on reliable transportation, it is becoming more and more necessary to foresee and anticipate the deterioration of structures. In particular,for structures that are part of major transportation systems, rehabilitation works need to be carefully planned in order to minimize disruptions of traffic. Automatic monitoring of structures is thus rapidly developing.Long-term monitoring of bridges is an important part of this overall effort to attempt to minimize both the impact and the cost of maintenance and rehabilitation work of major structures. By knowing the rate of deterioration of a given structure, the engineer is able to anticipate and adequately define the timing of required interventions. Conversely, interventions can be delayed until the condition of the structure requires them, without reducing the overall safety of the structure.The paper presents an innovative approach to the measurement of long-term bridge deformations. The use of high precision inclinometers permits an effective, accurate and unobtrusive following of the long-term rotations. The measurements can be performed under traffic conditions. Simultaneous measurement of the temperature at several locations gives a clear idea of the movements induced by thermal conditions and those induced by creep and shrinkage. The system presented is operational since August 1997 in the Mentue bridge, currently under construction in Switzerland. The structure has a main span of 150 m and piers 100 m high.2. LONG-TERM MONITORING OF BRIDGESAs part of its research and service activities within the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), IBAP - Reinforced and Prestressed Concrete has been involved in the monitoring of long-time deformations of bridges and other structures for over twenty-five years [1, 2, 3, 4]. In the past, IBAP has developed a system for the measurement of long-term deformations using hydrostatic leveling [5, 6]. This system has been in successful service in ten bridges in Switzerland for approximately ten years [5,7]. The system is robust, reliable and sufficiently accurate, but it requires human intervention for each measurement, and is not well suited for automatic data acquisition. One additional disadvantage of this system is that it is only easily applicable to box girder bridges with an accessible box.Occasional continuous measurements over periods of 24 hours have shown that the amplitude of daily movements is significant, usually amounting to several millimeters over a couple of hours. This is exemplified in figure 1, where measurements of the twin Lutrive bridges, taken over a period of several years before and after they were strengthened by post-tensioning, areshown along with measurements performed over a period of 24 hours. The scatter observed in the data is primarily caused by thermal effects on the bridges. In the case of these box-girder bridges built by the balanced cantilever method, with a main span of 143.5 m, the amplitude of deformations on a sunny day is of the same order of magnitude than the long term deformation over several years.Instantaneous measurements, as those made by hydrostatic leveling, are not necessarily representative of the mean position of the bridge. This occurs because the position of the bridge at the time of the measurement is influenced by the temperature history over the past several hours and days. Even if every care was taken to perform the measurements early in the morning and at the same period every year, it took a relatively long time before it was realized that the retrofit performed on the Lutrive bridges in 1988 by additional post-tensioning [3, 7,11] had not had the same effect on both of them.Figure 1: Long-term deflections of the Lutrive bridges, compared to deflections measured in a 24-hour period Automatic data acquisition, allowing frequent measurements to be performed at an acceptable cost, is thus highly desirable. A study of possible solutions including laser-based leveling, fiber optics sensors and GPS-positioning was performed, with the conclusion that, provided that their long-term stability can be demonstrated, current types of electronic inclinometers are suitable for automatic measurements of rotations in existing bridges [8].3. MENTUE BRIDGESThe Mentue bridges are twin box-girder bridges that will carry the future A1 motorway from Lausanne to Bern. Each bridge, similar in design, has an overall length of approximately 565 m, and a width of 13.46 m, designed to carry two lanes of traffic and an emergency lane. The bridges cross a deep valley with steep sides (fig. 2). The balanced cantilever design results from a bridge competition. The 100 m high concrete piers were built using climbing formwork, after which the construction of the balanced cantilever started (fig. 3).4. INCLINOMETERSStarting in 1995, IBAP initiated a research project with the goal of investigating the feasibility of a measurement system using inclinometers. Preliminary results indicated that inclinometers offer several advantages for the automatic monitoring of structures. Table 1 summarizes the main properties of the inclinometers selected for this study.One interesting property of measuring a structure’s rotations, is that, for a given ratio of maximum deflection to span length, the maximum rotation is essentially independent from its static system [8]. Since maximal allowable values of about 1/1,000 for long-term deflections under permanent loads are generally accepted values worldwide, developments made for box-girder bridges with long spans, as is the case for this research, are applicable to other bridges, for instance bridges with shorter spans and other types of cross-sections. This is significant because of the need to monitor smaller spans which constitute the majority of all bridges.The selected inclinometers are of type Wyler Zerotronic ±1°[9]. Their accuracy is 1 microradian (μrad), which corresponds to a rotation of one millimeter per kilometer, a very small value. For an intermediate span of a continuous beam with a constant depth, a mid-span deflection of 1/20,000 would induce a maximum rotation of about 150 μrad, or 0.15 milliradians (mrad).One potential problem with electronic instruments is that their measurements may drift overtime. To quantify and control this problem, a mechanical device was designed allowing the inclinometers to be precisely rotated of 180° in an horizontal plane (fig. 4). The drift of each inclinometer can be very simply obtained by comparing the values obtained in the initial and rotated position with previously obtained values. So far, it has been observed that the type of inclinometer used in this project is not very sensitive to drifting.5. INSTRUMENTATION OF THE MENTUE BRIDGESBecause a number of bridges built by the balanced cantilever method have shown an unsatisfactory behavior in service [2, 7,10], it was decided to carefully monitor the evolution of the deformations of the Mentue bridges. These bridges were designed taking into consideration recent recommendations for the choice of the amount of posttensioning [7,10,13]. Monitoring starting during the construction in 1997 and will be pursued after the bridges are opened to traffic in 2001. Deflection monitoring includes topographic leveling by the highway authorities, an hydrostatic leveling system over the entire length of both bridges and a network of inclinometers in the main span of the North bridge. Data collection iscoordinated by the engineer of record, to facilitate comparison of measured values. The information gained from these observations will be used to further enhance the design criteria for that type of bridge, especially with regard to the amount of post-tensioning [7, 10, 11, 12, 13].The automatic monitoring system is driven by a data acquisition program that gathers and stores the data. This system is able to control various types of sensors simultaneously, at the present time inclinometers and thermal sensors. The computer program driving all the instrumentation offers a flexible framework, allowing the later addition of new sensors or data acquisition systems. The use of the development environment LabView [14] allowed to leverage the large user base in the field of laboratory instrumentation and data analysis. The data acquisition system runs on a rather modest computer, with an Intel 486/66 Mhz processor, 16 MB of memory and a 500 MB hard disk, running Windows NT. All sensor data are gathered once per minute and stored in compressed form on the hard disk. The system is located in the box-girder on top of pier 3 (fig. 5). It can withstand severe weather conditions and will restart itself automatically after a power outage, which happened frequently during construction.6. SENSORSFigure 5(a) shows the location of the inclinometers in the main span of the North bridge. The sensors are placed at the axis of the supports (①an d⑤), at 1/4 and 3/4 (③an d④) of the span and at 1/8 of the span for②. In the cross section, the sensors are located on the North web, at a height corresponding to the center of gravity of the section (fig.5a). The sensors are all connected by a single RS-485 cable to the central data acquisition system located in the vicinity of inclinometer ①. Monitoring of the bridge started already during its construction. Inclinometers①,②and③were installed before the span was completed. The resulting measurement were difficult to interpret, however, because of the wide variations of angles induced by the various stages of this particular method of construction.The deflected shape will be determined by integrating the measured rotations along the length of the bridge (fig.5b). Although this integration is in principle straightforward, it has been shown [8, 16] that the type of loading and possible measurement errors need to be carefully taken into account.Thermal sensors were embedded in concrete so that temperature effects could be taken into account for the adjustment of the geometry of the formwork for subsequent casts. Figure 6 shows the layout of thermal sensors in the main span. The measurement sections are located at the same sections than the inclinometers (fig. 5). All sensors were placed in the formwork before concreting and were operational as soon as the formwork was removed, which was required for the needs of the construction. In each section, seven of the nine thermal sensor (indicated in solid black in fig. 6) are now automatically measured by the central data acquisition system.7. RESULTSFigure 7 shows the results of inclinometry measurements performed from the end ofSeptember to the third week of November 1997. All inclinometers performed well during that period. Occasional interruptions of measurement, as observed for example in early October are due to interruption of power to the system during construction operations. The overall symmetry of results from inclinometers seem to indicate that the instruments drift is not significant for that time period. The maximum amplitude of bridge deflection during the observed period, estimated on the basis of the inclinometers results, is around 40 mm. More accurate values will be computed when the method of determination ofdeflections will have been further calibrated with other measurements. Several periods of increase, respectively decrease, of deflections over several days can be observed in the graph. This further illustrates the need for continuous deformation monitoring to account for such effects. The measurement period was .busy. in terms of construction, and included the following operations: the final concrete pours in that span, horizontal jacking of the bridge to compensate some pier eccentricities, as well as the stressing of the continuity post-tensioning, and the de-tensioning of the guy cables (fig. 3). As a consequence, the interpretation of these measurements is quite difficult. It is expected that further measurements, made after the completion of the bridge, will be simpler to interpret.Figure 8 shows a detail of the measurements made in November, while figure.9 shows temperature measurements at the top and bottom of the section at mid-span made during that same period. It is clear that the measured deflections correspond to changes in the temperature. The temperature at the bottom of the section follows closely variations of the air temperature(measured in the shade near the north web of the girder). On the other hand, the temperature at the top of the cross section is less subject to rapid variations. This may be due to the high elevation of the bridge above ground, and also to the fact that, during the measuring period, there was little direct sunshine on the deck. The temperature gradient between top and bottom of the cross section has a direct relationship with short-term variations. It does not, however, appear to be related to the general tendency to decrease in rotations observed in fig. 8.8. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTSFuture developments will include algorithms to reconstruct deflections from measured rotations. To enhance the accuracy of the reconstruction of deflections, a 3D finite element model of the entire structure is in preparation [15]. This model will be used to identify the influence on rotations of various phenomena, such as creep of the piers and girder, differential settlements, horizontal and vertical temperature gradients or traffic loads.Much work will be devoted to the interpretation of the data gathered in the Mentue bridge. The final part of the research project work will focus on two aspects: understanding the very complex behavior of the structure, and determining the most important parameters, to allow a simple and effective monitoring of the bridges deflections.Finally, the research report will propose guidelines for determination of deflections from measured rotations and practical recommendations for the implementation of measurement systems using inclinometers. It is expected that within the coming year new sites will be equipped with inclinometers. Experiences made by using inclinometers to measure deflections during loading tests [16, 17] have shown that the method is very flexible and competitive with other high-tech methods.As an extension to the current research project, an innovative system for the measurement of bridge joint movement is being developed. This system integrates easily with the existing monitoring system, because it also uses inclinometers, although from a slightly different type.9. CONCLUSIONSAn innovative measurement system for deformations of structures using high precision inclinometers has been developed. This system combines a high accuracy with a relatively simple implementation. Preliminary results are very encouraging and indicate that the use of inclinometers to monitor bridge deformations is a feasible and offers advantages. The system is reliable, does not obstruct construction work or traffic and is very easily installed. Simultaneous temperature measurements have confirmed the importance of temperature variations on the behavior of structural concrete bridges.10.

Structural Rehabilitation of Concrete Bridges with CFRP Composites-Practical Details and Applications Riyad S. ABOUTAHA1, and Nuttawat CHUTARAT2 ABSTRACT: Many old existing bridges are still active in the various networks, carrying all kinds of environments. Water, salt, and wind ; and to extend the service life of concrete bridges is by the use of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites. There appear to be very limited guides on repair of deteriorated concrete bridges with CFRP composites. In this paper, guidelines for nondestructive evaluation (NDE), nondestructive testing (NDT), and rehabilitation of deteriorated concrete bridges with CFRP composites are presented. The effect of detailing on ductility and behavior of CFRP strengthened concrete bridges are also discussed and presented.KEYWORDS: Concrete deterioration, corrosion of steel, bridge rehabilitation, CFRP composites.1 IntroductionThere are several destructive external environmental factors that limit the service life of bridges. These factors include but not limited to chemical attacks, corrosion of reinforcing steel bars, carbonation of concrete, and chemical reaction of aggregate. If bridges were not well maintained, these factors may lead to a structural deficiency, which reduces the margin of safety, and may result in structural failure. In order to rehabilitate andor strengthen deteriorated existing bridges, thorough evaluation should be conducted. The purpose of theevaluation is to assess the actual condition of any existing bridge, and generally to examine the remaining strength and load carry capacity of the bridge.1 Associate Professor, Syracuse University, U.S.A.2 Lecturer, Sripatum University, Thailand.One attempt to restore the original condition, and to extend the service life of concrete bridges is by the use of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites.In North America, Europe and Japan, CFRP extensively investigated and applied. Several design guides developed for strengthening of concrete bridges with CFRP composites. However, there appear to be very limited guides on repair of deteriorated concrete bridges with CFRP composites. This paper presents guidelines for repair of deteriorated concrete bridges, along with proper detailing. Evaluation, nondestructive testing, and rehabilitation of deteriorated concrete bridges with CFRP composites are presented. Successful application of CFRP composites requires good detailing as the forces developed in the CFRP sheets are transferred by bond at the concrete-CFRP interface. The effect of detailing on ductility and behavior of CFRP strengthened concrete bridges will also be discussed and presented.2 Deteriorated Concrete BridgesDurability of bridges is of major concern. Increasing number of bridges are experiencing significant amounts of deterioration prior to reaching their design service life. This premature deterioration considered a problem in terms of the structural integrity and safety of the bridge. In addition, deterioration of a bridge many cases, the root of a deterioration problem is caused by corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete structures. Concrete normally acts to provide a against corrosion of the embedded reinforcement. However, corrosion will result in those cases that typically experience poor concrete quality, inadequate design or construction, and , may turn into a strength problem leading to a structural deficiency, as shown in Figure1.Figure1 Corrosion of the steel bars is leading to a structural deficiency3 Non-destructive Testing of Deteriorated Concrete Bridge PiersIn order to design a successful retrofit system, the condition of the existing bridge should be thoroughly evaluated. Evaluation of existing bridge elements or systems involves review of the asbuilt drawings, as well as accurate estimate of the condition of the existing bridge, as shown in Figure2. Depending on the purpose of evaluation, non-destructive tests may involve estimation of strength, salt contents, corrosion rates, alkalinity in concrete, etc.Figure2 Visible concrete distress marked on an elevation of a concrete bridgepierAlthough most of the non-destructive tests do not cause any damage to existing bridges, some NDT may cause minor local damage (e.g. drilled -destructive testing.In order to select the most appropriate non-destructive test for a particular case, the purpose of the test should be identified. In general, there are three types of NDT to investigate: (1) strength, (2) other structural properties, and (3) quality and durability. The strength methods may include; compressive test (e.g. core testrebound test (e.g. Windsor probe), and pullout test (anchor test).Other structural test methods may include; concrete cover thickness (cover-meter), locating rebars (rebar locator), rebar size (some rebar locatorsrebar data scan), concrete moisture (acquametermoisture meter), cracking (visual testimpact echoultrasonic pulse velocity), delamination (’s ratio (ultrasonic pulse velocity), thickness of concrete slab or wall (ultrasonic pulse velocity), CFRP debonding ( on concrete surface (visual inspection).Quality and durability test methods may include; rebar corrosion rate –field test, chloride profile field test, rebar corrosion analysis, rebar resistivity test, alkali-silica reactivity field test, concrete alkalinity test (carbonation field test), concrete permeability (field test for permeability).4 Non-destructive Evaluation of Deteriorated Concrete Bridge PiersThe process of evaluating the structural condition of an existing concrete bridge consists of collecting information, e.g. drawings and construction & inspection records, analyzing NDT data, and structural analysis of the bridge. The evaluation process can be summarized as follows: (1) Planning for the assessment, (2) Preliminary assessment, which involves examination of available documents, site inspection, materials assessment, and preliminary analysis, (3) Preliminary evaluation, this involves: examination phase, and judgmental phase, and finally (4) the cost-impact study.If the information is insufficient to conduct evaluation to a specific required level, then a detailed evaluation may be conducted following similar steps for the above-mentioned preliminary assessment, but in-depth assessment. Successful analytical evaluation of an existing deteriorated concrete bridge should consider the actual condition of the bridge and level of deterioration of various elements. Factors, e.g. actual concrete strength, level of damagedeterioration, actual size of corroded rebars, loss of bond between steel and concrete, etc. should be modeled into a detailed analysis. If such detailed analysis is difficult to accomplish within a reasonable period of time, then evaluation by field load testing of the actual bridge in question may be required.5 Bridge Rehabilitation with CFRP CompositesApplication of CFRP composite materials is becoming increasingly attractive to extend the service life of existing concretebridges. The technology of strengthening existing bridges with externally bonded CFRP composites was developed primarily in Japan (FRP sheets), and Europe (laminates). The use of these materials for strengthening existing concrete bridges started in the 1980s, first as a substitute to bonded steel plates, and then as a substitute for steel jackets for seismic retrofit of bridge columns. CFRP Composite materials are composed of fiber reinforcement bonded together with a resin matrix. The fibers provide the composite with its unique structural properties. The resin matrix supports the fibers, protect them, and transfer the applied load to the fibers through shearing stresses. Most of the commercially available CFRP systems in the construction market consist of uniaxial fibers embedded in a resin matrix, typically epoxy. Carbon fibers , which may limit the deformability of strengthened members. However, under traffic loads, local debonding between FRP sheets and concrete substrate would allow for acceptable level of global deformations before failure.CFRP composites could be used to increase the flexural and shear strength of bridge girders including pier cap beams, as shown in Figure3. In order to increase the ductility of CFRP strengthened concrete girders, the longitudinal CFRP composite sheets used for flexural strengthening should be anchored with transversediagonal CFRP anchors to prevent premature delamination of the longitudinal sheets due to localized debonding at the concrete surface-CFRP sheet interface. In order to prevent stress concentration and premature fracture of the CFRP sheets at the corners of concrete members, thecorners should be rounded at 50mm (2.0 inch) radius, as shown in Figure3.Deterioration of concrete bridge members due to corrosion of steel bars usually leads in loss of steel section and delamination of concrete cover. As a result, such deterioration may lead to structural deficiency that requires immediate attention. Figure4 shows rehabilitation of structurally deficient concrete bridge pier using CFRP composites.Figure3 Flexural and shear strengthening of concrete bridge pier with FRPcompositesFigure4 Rehabilitation of deteriorated concrete bridge pier with CFRPcomposites6 Summary and ConclusionsEvaluation, non-destructive testing and rehabilitation of deteriorated concrete bridges were presented. Deterioration of concrete bridge components due to corrosion may lead to structural deficiencies, e.g. flexural andor shear failures. Application of CFRP composite materials is becoming increasingly attractive solution to extend the service life of existing concrete bridges. CFRP composites could be utilized for flexural and shear strengthening, as well as for restoration of deteriorated concrete bridge components. The CFRP composite sheets should be well detailed to prevent stress concentration and premature fracture or delamination. For successful rehabilitation of concrete bridges in corrosive environments, acorrosion protection system should be used along with the CFRP system.碳纤维复合材料修复混凝土桥梁结构的详述及应用Riyad S.

原文Highway Design and Construction: The Innovation Challenge Author: Robert E. Skinner Jr.Innovations and advances in research are changing the way highways are built in America.The Egyptians were pouring concrete in 2500 BC, and the Romans used it to construct the Pantheon and the Colosseum. By the mid-1800s, Europeans were building bridges with concrete, and the first “modern” concrete highway pavements appear ed in the latter part of the 19th century. Naturally occurring asphalts, which have been used for waterproofing for thousands of years, came into common use in road construction in the 1800s. The first iron bridge was constructed in 1774, but by the end of the 19th century steel had largely replaced iron in bridge construction. These materials—concrete, asphalt, and steel—are now the mainstays of highway and bridge construction throughout the world, as well as of most types of public works infrastructure. Concrete and steel, the most versatile of these materials, are used for bridges and other highway structures; concrete and asphalt are used for roadway pavements.Everyone is familiar with concrete, asphalt, and steel, and some of us have worked with them, perhaps on home improvement projects. This familiarity, coupled with the long history of their many uses, has led many otherwise technically savvy people to believe that these materials are well understood, that their performance can be easily and reliably predicted, and that the technical challenges in using them for highways were overcome long ago. However, such notions are largely incorrect and misleading.For example, consider concrete, which is a mixture of portland cement, sand, aggregate (gravel or crushed stone), and water. Its performance characteristics are determined by the proportions and characteristics of the components, as well as by how it is mixed and formed. The underlying chemical reactions of concrete are surprisingly complex, not completely understood, and vary with the type of stone. Steel may be added for tensile strength (reinforced concrete), and a variety of additives have been identified to improve the workabilityand performance of concrete in particular applications and conditions. Damage and deterioration to concrete can result from excessive loadings and environmental conditions, such as freeze-thaw cycles and chemical reactions with salts used for deicing._________________________Many factors contribute to theurgent need for innovation inhighway construction._________________________Concrete is the most heavily used substance in the world after water (Sedgwick, 1991). Worldwide, concrete construction annually consumes about 1.6 billion tons of cement, 10 billion tons of sand and crushed stone, and 1 billion tons of water (M.S. Kahn, 2007). Given transportation costs, there is a huge financial incentive to using local sources of stone, even if the properties of that stone are less than ideal. Thus concrete is not a homogenous material. In truth, an unlimited number of combinations and permutations are possible.Much the same can be said of asphalt—technically, asphaltic concrete—which is also a mixture of aggregate (gravel or crushed stone), sand, and cement (asphalt binder); economics promote the use of locally available materials; and the underlying chemistry is not well understood. The characteristics of asphalt binder, for instance, vary depending on the source of crude oil from which it is derived.The metallurgy of steel is probably better understood than the chemistry of either asphalt or concrete, but it too is a mixture with virtually limitless combinations. Strength, toughness, corrosion resistance, and weldability are some of the performance characteristics that vary with the type of steel alloy used and the intended applications.As uses evolve and economic conditions change, we have a continuing need for a more sophisticated understanding of these common materials. Even though they are “mature” products, there is still room for significant incremental improvements in their performance. Because fundamental knowledge is still wanting, there is also considerable potential for breakthroughs in their performance.Factors That Affect Highway ConstructionAll other things being equal, stronger, longer lasting, less costly highway materials are desirable and, given the quantities involved, there are plenty of incentives for innovation. In highway transportation, however, all other things are not equal. A number of other factors contribute to the urgent and continuing need for innovation.First, traffic volume and loadings continue to increase. Every day the U.S. highway network carries more traffic, including heavy trucks that were unimagined when the system wasoriginally conceived and constructed. The 47,000-mile interstate highway system today carries more traffic than the entire U.S. highway system carried in 1956 when the interstates were laid out. The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) estimates that in metropolitan areas the annual cost of traffic congestion for businesses and citizens is nearly $170 billion (PB Consult, Inc., 2007).On rural interstates, overall traffic more than doubled between 1970 and 2005; at the same time, the loadings on those highways increased six-fold, mainly due to the increase in the number of trucks and the number of miles they travel. (Truck traffic increased from about 5.7 percent of all vehicle-miles traveled on U.S. highways in 1965 to 7.5 percent in 2000 [FHWA, 2005]).Second, traffic disruptions must be kept to a minimum during construction. Our overstressed highway system is not very resilient. Thus disruptions of any sort, such as lane and roadway closings, especially in major metropolitan areas and on key Interstate routes, can cause massive traffic snarls. This means that repair and reconstruction operations must often be done at night, which introduces a variety of additional complexities and safety issues. Occasionally, heroic measures must be taken to keep traffic moving during construction. For example, during construction of the “Big Dig” in Boston, the elevated Central Artery was in continuous service while cut-cover tunnels were constructed directly below it.Third, environmental, community, and safety requirements have become more stringent. For many good reasons, expectations of what a highway should be, how it should operate, and how it should interact with the environment and adjacent communities are constantly evolving. Designs to promote safety, measures to mitigate a growing list of environmental impacts, and attention to aesthetics have fundamentally changed the scope of major highway projects in the United States. For example, on Maryland’s $2.4 billion Intercounty Connector project in suburban Washington, D.C., which is now under construction, environmental mitigation accounts for 15 percent of project costs, or about $15 million per mile (AASHTO, 2008). Fourth, costs continue to rise. Building and maintaining highways cost effectively is an ever-present goal of good engineering. But cost increases in highway construction have been extraordinary due in part to the expanded scope of highway projects and construction in demanding settings. In addition, the costs of the mainstay materials—portland cement, asphalt binder, and steel—have risen dramatically as the world, particularly China, has gone on a construction binge. The Federal Highway Administration’s cost indices for portland cement concrete pavement, asphalt pavement, and structural steel increased by 51 percent, 58 percent, and 70 percent respectively between 1995 and 2005 (FHWA, 2006).Fortunately, research and innovation in construction have never stopped, although they are not always sufficiently funded and they seem to fly beneath the radar of many scientists and engineers. Nevertheless, there have been great successes, which are cumulatively changing how highways are built in America.The Superpave Design SystemIn response to widespread concerns about premature failures of hot-mix asphalt pavements in the early 1980s, a well funded, congressionally mandated, crash research program was conducted to improve our understanding of asphalt pavements and their performance. The seven-year Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP), which was managed by the National Research Council, developed a new system of standard specifications, test methods, andengineering practices for the selection of materials and the mix proportions for hot-mix asphalt pavement.The new system has improved matches between combinations of asphalt binder and crushed stone and the climatic and traffic conditions on specific highways. State departments of transportation (DOTs) spend more than $10 billion annually on these pavements, so even modest improvements in pavement durability and useful life can lead to substantial cost savings for agencies and time savings for motorists (TRB, 2001).SHRP rolled out the Superpave system in 1993, but it took years for individual states and their paving contractors to switch to the new system, which represents a significant departure, not only in design, but also in the procedures and equipment used for testing. Each state DOT had to be convinced that the benefits would outweigh the modest additional costs of Superpave mixes, as well as the time and effort to train its staff and acquire necessary equipment.A survey in 2005 showed that 50 state DOTs (including the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico) were using Superpave (Figure 1). The remaining two states indicated that they would be doing so by the end of 2006. Throughout the implementation period, researchers continued to refine the system (e.g., using recycled asphalt pavements in the mix design [TRB, 2005]).It may be years before the cost benefits of Superpave can be quantified. A 1997 study by the Te xas Transportation Institute projected that, when fully implemented, Superpave’s annualized net savings over 20 years would approach $1.8 billion annually—approximately $500 million in direct savings to the public and $1.3 billion to highway users (Little et al., 1997).Moreover, analyses by individual states and cities have found that Superpave has dramatically improved performance with little or no increase in cost. Superpave is not only an example of a successful research program. It also demonstrates that a vigorous, sustained technology-transfer effort is often required for innovation in a decentralized sector, such as highway transportation.Prefabricated ComponentsThe offsite manufacturing of steel and other components of reinforced concrete for bridges and tunnels is nothing new. But the need for reconstructing or replacing heavily used highway facilities has increased the use of prefabricated components in startling ways. In some cases components are manufactured thousands of miles from the job site; in others, they are manufactured immediately adjacent to the site. Either way, we are rethinking how design and construction can be integrated.When the Texas Department of Transportation needed to replace 113 bridge spans on an elevated interstate highway in Houston, it found that the existing columns were reusable, but the bent caps (the horizontal connections between columns) had to be replaced. As an alternative to the conventional, time-consuming, cast-in-place approach, researchers at the University of Texas devised new methods of installing precast concrete bents. In this project, the precast bents cut construction time from 18 months to slightly more than 3 months (TRB, 2001).As part of a massive project to replace the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, the California Department of Transportation and the Bay Area Toll Authority had to replace a 350-foot, 10-lane section of a viaduct on Yerba Buena Island. In this case, the contractor, C.C. Myers, prefabricated the section immediately adjacent to the existing viaduct. The entire bridge was then shut down for the 2007 Labor Day weekend, while the existing viaduct was demolished and the new 6,500-ton segment was “rolled” into place (Figure 2). The entire operation was accomplished 11 hours ahead of schedule (B. Kahn, 2007).Probably the most extensive and stunning collection of prefabricated applications on a single project was on the Central Artery/Tunnel Project (“Big Dig”) in Boston. For the Ted Williams Tunnel, a dozen 325-foot-long steel tunnel sections were constructed in Baltimore, shipped to Boston, floated into place, and then submerged. However, for the section of the tunnel that runs beneath the Four Points Channel, which is part of the I-90 extension, bridge restrictions made this approach infeasible. Instead, a huge casting basin was constructed adjacent to the channel where 30- to 50-ton concrete tunnel sections were manufactured The basin was flooded and the sections winched into position with cables and then submerged.An even more complicated process was used to build the extension tunnel under existing railroad tracks, which had poor underlying soil conditions. Concrete and steel boxes were built at one end of the tunnel, then gradually pushed into place through soil that had been frozen using a network of brine-filled pipes (Vanderwarker, 2001).Specialty Portland Cement ConcretesNew generations of specialty concretes have improved one or more aspects of performance and allow for greater flexibility in highway design and construction. High-performance concrete typically has compressive strengths of at least 10,000 psi. Today, ultra-high-performance concretes with formulations that include silica fume, quartz flour, water reducers, and steel or organic fibers have even greater durability and compressive strengths up to 30,000 psi. These new concretes can enable construction with thinner sections and longer spans (M.S. Kahn, 2007).Latex-modified concrete overlays have been used for many years to extend the life of existing, deteriorating concrete bridge decks by the Virginia DOT, which pioneered the use of very early strength latex-modified concretes for this application. In high-traffic situations, the added costs of the concrete have been more than offset by savings in traffic-control costs and fewer delays for drivers (Sprinkel, 2006).When the air temperature dips below 40， costly insulation techniques must be used when pouring concrete for highway projects. By using commercially available admixtures that depress the freezing point of water, the U.S. Cold-Weather Research and Engineering Laboratory has developed new concrete formulations that retain their strength and durability at temperatures as low as 23?F. Compared to insulation techniques, this innovation has significantly decreased construction costs and extended the construction season in cold weather regions (Korhonen, 2004).As useful as these and other specialty concretes are, nanotechnology and nanoengineering techniques, which are still in their infancy, have the potential to make even more dramatic improvements in theperformance and cost of concrete.Waste and Recycled MaterialsHighway construction has a long history of using industrial waste and by-product materials. The motivations of the construction industry were simple—to help dispose of materials that are otherwise difficult to manage and to reduce the initial costs of highway construction. The challenge has been to use these materials in ways that do not compromise critical performance properties and that do not introduce substances that are potenti-ally harmful to people or the environment. At the same time, as concerns about sustainability have become more prominent in public thinking, the incentives to use by-product materials have increased. In addition, because the reconstruction and resurfacing of highways create their own waste, recycling these construction materials makes economic and environmental sense.Research and demonstration projects have generated many successful uses of by-product and recycled materials in ways that simultaneously meet performance, environmental, and economic objectives. For example, “crumb rubber” from old tires is increasingly being used as an additive in certain hot-mix asphalt pavement designs, and a number of patents have been issued related to the production and design of crumb rubber or asphalt rubber pavements (CDOT, 2003; Epps, 1994).Several states, notably California and Arizona, use asphalt rubber hot mix as an overlay for distressed flexible and rigid pavements and as a means of reducing highway noise. Materials derived from discarded tires have also been successfully used as lightweight fill for highway embankments and backfill for retaining walls, as well as for asphalt-based sealers and membranes (Epps, 1994; TRB, 2001).Fly ash, a residue from coal-burning power plants, and silica fume, a residue from metal-producing furnaces, are increasingly being used as additives to portland cement concrete. Fly-ash concretes can reduce alkali-silica reactions that lead to the premature deterioration of concrete (Lane, 2001), and silica fume is a component of the ultra-high-performance concrete described above.After many years of experimentation and trials, reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) is now routinely used in virtually all 50 states as a substitute for aggregate and a portion of the asphalt binder in hot-mix asphalt, including Superpave mixes. The reclaimed material typically constitutes 25 to 50 percent of the “new” mix (TFHRC, 1998). The National Asphalt Pavement Association estimates that 90 percent of the asphalt pavement removed each year is recycled and that approximately 125 millions tons of RAP are produced, with an annual savings of $300 million (North Central Superpave Center, 2004).Visualization, Global Positioning Systems, and Other New Tools For more than 20 years, highway engineers have used two-dimensional, computer-aided drafting and design (CADD) systems to accelerate the design process and reduce costs. The benefits of CADD systems have derived essentially from automating the conventional design process, with engineers doing more or less what they had done before, although much faster and with greater flexibility.New generations of three- and four-dimensional systems are introducing new ways of designing roads, as well as building them (Figure 4). For example, three-dimensional visualization techniques are clearly useful for engineers. But, perhaps more importantly, they have improved the communication of potential designs to affected communities and public officials; in fact, they represent an entirely new design paradigm. Four-dimensional systems help engineers and contractors analyze the constructability of proposed designs well in advance of actual constructionGlobal positioning systems are being used in surveying/layout, in automated guidance systems for earth-moving equipment, and for monitoring quantities. Other innovations include in situ temperature sensors coupled with data storage, transmission, and processing devices that provide onsite information about the maturity and strength of concrete as it cures (Hannon, 2007; Hixson, 2006).ConclusionThe examples described above suggest the wide range of exciting innovations in the design and construction of highways. These innovations address materials, roadway and bridge designs, design and construction methods, road safety, and a variety of environmental, community, and aesthetic concerns. Looking to the future, however, challenges to the U.S. highway system will be even more daunting—accommodating more traffic and higher loadings; reducing traffic disruptions during construction; meeting more stringent environmental, community, and safety requirements; and continuing pressure to reduce costs. Addressing these challenges will require a commitment to innovation and the research that supports innovation.中文翻译高速公路设计与施工：创新的挑战作者：小罗伯特·E·斯金纳研究方式的创新和进步正在改变着美国公路建设的方式。

Review of assessment and repair of fire-damaged RChighway bridgesAbstract：This paper presents a review of the progress of the research and engineering practice of assessment and repair of fire-damaged RC highway bridges，based on which existing and pressing problems of the evaluation method are pointed out．At last，Prospect for the development of assessment and repair of fire-damaged highway bridges is also proposed．Key words：fire damage；assessment；repair techniques；RC structure；bridge 1 PrefaceFires can cause great structural damage to bridges and major disruption to highway operations．These incidents stem primarily from vehicle accident (often oil tanker) fires，bridges might also be damaged by fires in adjacent facilities and from other causes．Quite a few of them，though rarely happened，lead to severe structural damage or collapse and casualty．On June 2，2008，fire disaster broke out under the 18th span of Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge and lasted for approximate 75min．During the fire’s development and extinguishment，the structure experienced the sharp rise and fall in temperature causing severe damage to fire- stricken segments．On April 29，2007，a gasoline tanker overturned on the connector from Interstate 8O to Interstate 880 in California．The intense heat from the subsequent fuel spill and fire weakened the stee1 underbelly of the elevated roadway ,collapsing approximately 165 feet of this elevated roadway onto a section of I—880below．On March 25，2004，Connecticut，United States，a tanker truck carrying fuel swerved to avoid a car and overturned，dumping 8000 gallons of home heating oil onto the Howard Avenue overpass．The consequent towering inferno melted the bridge structure and caused the southbound lanes to sag several feetUndocumented number of bridge fires occurring throughout the world each year cause varying degrees of disruption，repair actions，and maintenance cost．Althoughfires caused damage to the bridge structures ,some bridges continue to function after proper repair and retrofit．Still in some situations they have to be repaired for the cause of traffic pressure even though supposed to be dismantled and reconstructed．However ,in other cases，structures are severely damaged in the fire disaster and fail to function even after repair，or the costs of repair and retrofit overweigh their reconstruction costs overwhelmingly even if they are repairable，under which situation reconstruction serves as a preferable option．Therefore in—situ investigation and necessary tests and analyses should be conducted to make comprehensive assessment of the residual mechanical properties and working statuses after fire and to evaluate the degrees of damage of members and structures , in reference to which decisions are made to determine whether Fire damaged structures should be repaired or dismantled and reconstructed．Urgent need from engineering practice highlighted the necessity to understand the susceptibility and severity of these incidents as wel1 as to review available information on mitigation strategies，damage assessments，and repair techniques.2 Progress in Research and Engineering Practice2.1 Processes of Assessment and Repair of Fire damaged BridgeStructureIn China and most countries in the world，most highway bridges are built in RC structure．And the practice of the assessment and repair techniques of bridge structure after fire directly refer to that of RC structure，which，to date，domestic and foreign scholars have made great amount of research on，with their theories and practices being increasingly mature .As for the assessment and repair of fire-damaged reinforced concrete structures，there are two mainstream assessment processes in world．Countries including United States，United Kingdom and Japan adopt the assessment process stipulated by The British Concrete Society .This process grates the severity of fire damage of concrete structure into four degrees according to thedeflection，damage depth，cracking width, color，and loading capacity variation of fire-damaged structures and adopt four corresponding strategies (including demolish，strengthen after safety measures，strengthen. and strengthen in damaged segments) to deal with them accordingly．In general，this process is a qualitative method and considered，however，not quantity enough.In Chinese Mainland and Taiwan ，the prevailing as assessment and repair process of fire damaged incorporates following steps：In comparison this process is more detailed．(1)Conduct In-situ inspections，measurements，and tests including color observation，concrete observation，degree of rebar exposure observation，cracking measurement，deflection measurement，various destructive and nondestructive test methods as grounds for assessment of fire—damaged structures．In assessment of the post -fire mechanical properties of fire—damaged structures，historical highest temperature and temperature distribution of structure during the fire serve as decisive factors．The common methods to determine them incorporate petrographic analysis，ultrasonic method，Rebound method，Ignition Loss method，core test，and color observation method(2)calculate to determine whether the fire-damaged structure can meet the demand of strength and deflection under working loads after fire using mechanical properties of rebar and concrete before and after fire based on the historical highest and temperature distribution of structures obtained from step one．There are two main methods to evaluate the post -fire performance of fire-damaged structures：FEM method and Revised Classic Method．(3)On the basis of test and calculation results obtained from step two，take corresponding repair strategies and particular methods to strengthen the fire-damaged structures.2．2 Repair TechniquesFor the repair of fire—damaged bridge，proper repair methods should be taken according to the degree and range of the structure’s damage．Meanwhile the safetyand economy of the repair methods should be concerned with by avoiding destructing the original structure，preserving the valuable structural members，and minimizing unnecessary demolishment and reconstruction。

This cable-stayed bridge of cast-in-place cancrete features a main span of 420m,the longest such span for this type of bridge in the Western Hemisphere.In 200 the MOP invited international bridge design firms to compete for the design of the crossing, requesting a two-package proposal:one techinical, the other financial. A total of eight proposals were received by December 2000 from established bridge design firms all over the world. After short-listing three firms on the basis of the technical merits of their proposals, the MOP selected T.Y.Lin International, of San Francisco, to prepare the bridge design and provide field construction support based on the firm’s financial package.The Centennial Bridge desige process was unique and aggressive,incorporating concepts from the traditional design/build/bid method, the design/build method , and the sa-called fast-track design process.To complete the construction on time-that is ,within just 27 months-the design of the bridge was carried out to a level of 30 percent before construction bidding began, in December 2001.The selected contractor-the Wiesbaden,Germany,office of Bilfinger Berger,AG-was brought on board immediately after being selected by the MOP ,just as would be the case in a fast-track approach. The desige of the bridge was then completed in conjunction with construction , a process that id similan to desige/build.The design selected by the client features two single-mast towers,each supporting two sets of stay cables that align in one vertical plane.Concrete was used to construct both the towers and the box girder deck,as well as the approach structures.The MOP , in conjunction with the Panama Canal Authority,established the following requirements for the bridge design :A 420m,the minimum length for the main span to accommodate the recently widened Gaillard Cut,a narrow portion of the canal crossing the Continental Divide that was straightened and widened to 275m in 2002;A navigational envelope consisting of 80m of vertical clearance and 70mof horizontal clearance to accommodate the safe passage of a crane of World War 11 vintage-a gift from the ernment that is used by the Panama Canal Authority to maintain the canal gates and facilities;A roadway wide enough to carry six lanes of traffic, three in each direction;A deck able to accommodate a 1.5m wide pedestrian walkway;A design that would adhere to the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Official standard for a 100-year service life and offer HS-25 truck loading;A structure that could carry two 0.6m dianeter water lines;A construction method that would not cross the canal at any time or interrupt canal operationa in any way.Because of the bridge’s long main span and the potential for strong seismic activity in the area,no single building code covered all aspects of the project.Therefore the team from T.Y. Lin International determinded which portions of several standard bridge specifications were applicable and which were not.The following design codes were used in developing the design criteria for the bridge，it is standard specifications for highway bridge ,16th ed,1996It was paramount that the towers of the cable-stayed structucture be erected on land to avoid potential ship collision and the need to construct expensive deep foundation in water. However, geological maps and boring logs produced during the preliminary design phrase revealed that the east and west banks of the canal, where the towers were to be located, featured vastly different geologicaland soil conditions. On the east side of the canal, beneath shallow layers of overburden that rangs in consistency from soft to hard, lies a block of basalt ranging from medium hard to hard with very closely spaced joint.The engineers determined that the basalt would provide a competent platform for the construction of shallow foundation for tower, piers, and approach structures on this side of bridge.The west side, however,featured the infamous Cucaracha Formation, which is a heterogeneous conglomerate of clay shale with inclusions of sandstone, basalt,and ash that is prone to landslide. As a sudsurface stratum the Cucaracha Formation is quite stable,but it quickly erodes when exposed to the elements. The engineers determined that deep foundations would therefore be needed for the western approach structure,the west tower,and the western piers.Before a detailed design of the foundationa could be developed,a thorough analysis of the seismic hazards at the site was required,The design seismic load for the project was developed on the basis of a probabilistic seismic hazard assessment that considered the conditions at the site.Such an assessment establishes the return period for a given earthquake and the corresponding intensity of ground shaking in the horizontal directtion in terms of an acceleration response spectrum.The PSHA determined two dominant seismic sources: a subduction source zone associated with the North Panama Deformed Belt capable of producing a seimic event as strong as 7.7MW,and the Rio Gatun Fault, capable of producing an event as strong as 6.5MW.The 7.7MW NPDB event was used as the safety evluation earthquake,that is,the maximum earthquake that could strike without putting the bridge out of service.The damage to the bridge would be minor but would require some closures of the bridge.The 6.5MWRio Gatun Fault event was used as the foundational evaluation earthquake,a lower-level temblor that would cause minimal damage to the bridge and would not require closures.For the FEE load case,the SEE loading was scaled back by two-thirds.The FEE is assumed to have a peak acceleration of 0.21g and a return period of 500 years; the probability that it will be exceeded within 50 years is 10 pencent and within 100 years,18 persent.The SEE is assumed to have a peak acceleration of 1.33g and a return period of 2,500 years;the probability that it will be exceeded within 50 years is 2 pencent and within 100 years,4 persent.Because of uncertainty about the direction from which the seismic waves would approach the site, a single response spectrum-a curve showing the mathematically computed maximum response of a set of simple damped harmonic oscillators of different natural frequencies to a particular earthquake ground acceleration-was used to characterize mitions in two mutually orthogonal directions in the horizontal plane.To conduct a time-history analysis of the bridge’s multiple supports,a set of synthetic motions with three components-longitudinal,transverse,and vertical-was developd using an iterative technique.Recorded ground motions from an earthquake in Chile in 1985 were used as “seed”motions for the sythesis process.A time delay estimate-that is,an estimate of the time it would take for the motions generated by the SEEand FEE earthquakes to travel from one point to the next-was create using the assumed seismic wave velocity and the distance between the piers of the ing an assumed was velocity of approximately 2.5km/s,a delay on the order of half a second to a secondis appropriate for a bridge 1 to 2km long.Soil-foundation interaction studies were performed to determine the stiffness of the soil and foundation as well as the seismic excitation measurement that would be used in the dynamic analyses.The studieswere conducted by means of soil-pile models using linear and nonlinear soil layera of varying depths.The equivalent pile lengths in the studies-that is, the lengths representing the portions of a given pile that would actually be affected by a given earthquake-induced ground motion-ranged from2to10m.In such a three-dimensional model,there are six ways in which the soil can resist the movement of the lpile because of its stiffness:throngh axial force in the three directions and through bending moments in three directions.Because the bridge site contains so many layers of varying soil types,each layer had to be represented by a different stiffness matrix and then analyzed.Once the above analyses were completed,the T.Y.Lin International engineers-taking into consideration the project requirements developedby the owener-evaluated several different concrete cable-stayed designs.A number of structural systems were investigated,the main variables,superstructure cross sections,and the varying support conditions described above.The requirement that the evevation of the deck be quite high strongly influenced the tower configuration.For the proposed deck elevation of more than 80m,the most economical tower shapes included single-and dual-mast towers as well as “goal post”towers-that is,a design in which the two masts would be linked to each other by crossbeams.Ultimately the engineers designd the bridge to be 34.3m wide with a 420mlong cable-stayd main span,two 200mlong side spans-one on each side of the main span-and approach structures at the ends of the side spans.On the east side there is one 46m long concrete approach structure,while on the west side there are three,measuring 60,60,and 66m,for a total bridge length of 1,052m.The side spans are supported by four piers,referred to,from west to east,as P1.P2,P3,and P4.The bridge deck is a continuous single-cell box girder from abutment to abutment; the expansion joints are located at the abutments only. Deck movements on the order of 400 mm are expected at these modular expansion joints Multidirectional pot bearings are used at the piers and at the abutments to accommodate these movements.The deck was fixed to the two towers to facilitate the balanced-cantilevermethod of construction and to provide torsional rigidity and lateral restraint to the deck.. Transverse live loads, seismic loads, and wind loads are proportionally distributed to the towers and the piers by the fixity of the deck to the towers and by reinforced-concrete shear keys located at the top of P1, P3, and P4. The deck is allowed to move longitudinally over the abutments and piers. The longitudinal, seismic, live, and temperature loads are absorbed by what is known as portal frame structural behavior, whereby the towers and the deck form a portal-much like the frame of a door in a building-that acts in proportion to the relative stiffness of the two towers.As previously mentioned, the presence of competent basalt on the east side of the site meant that shallow foundations could be used there; in particular, spread footings were designed for the east tower, the east approach structure, and the east abutment. The west tower, the west approach structure, and the western piers (P2 and P3), however, had to be founded deep within the Cucaracha Formation. A total of 48 cast-in-drilled-hole (CIDH) shafts with 2 m outer diameters and lengths ranging from 25 to 35 m were required. A moment curvature analysis was performed to determine the capacity of the shafts with different amounts of longitudinal steel rebar. The results were plotted against the demands, and on the basis of the results the amount of required longitudinal reinforcing steel was determined to be 1 percent of the amount of concrete used in the shafts. The distribution of the longitudinal reinforcing steel was established by following code requirements, with consideration also given to the limitations of constructing CIDH piles with the contractor’s preferred method, which is the water or slurry displacement method.A minimum amount of transverse steel had to be determined for use in the plastic regions of the shaft-that is, those at the top one-eighth of eighth of each shaft and within the shaft caps, which would absorb the highest seismic demands. Once this amount was determined, it was used as the minimum for areas of the shafts above their points of fixity where large lateral displacements were expected to occur. The locations of the transverse steel were then established by following code requirements and by considering the construction limitations of CIDH piles. The transverse steel was spiral shaped.Even though thief foundation designs differed, the towers themselves were designed to be identical. Each measures 185.5 m from the top of its pile cap and is designed as a hollow reinforced-concrete shaft with a truncated elliptical cross section (see figure opposite). Each tower’s width in plan varies along its height, narrowing uniformly from 9.5 m at the base of the tower to 6 m at the top. In the longitudinal direction, each pylon tapers from 9.5 m at the base to about 8 m right below the deck level,which is about 87 m above the tower base. Above the deck level the tower’s sections vary from 4.6 m just above the deck to 4.5 m at the top. Each tower was designed with a 2 by 4 m opening for pedestrian passage along the deck, a design challenge requiring careful detailing.The towers were designed in a accordance with the latest provisions of the ATC earthquake design manual mentioned previously (ATC-32). Owing to the portal frame action along the bridge’s longitudinal axis, special seismic detailing was implemented in regions with the potential to develop plastic hinges in the event of seismic activity-specifically, just below the deck and above the footing. Special confining forces and alternating open stirrups-with 90 and 135 degree hooks-within the perimeter of the tower shaft.In the transverse direction, the tower behaves like a cantilever, requiring concrete-confining steel at its base. Special attention was needed at the joint between the tower and the deck because of the central-plane stay-cable arrangement, it was necessary to provide sufficient torsional stiffness and special detailing at the pier-to-deck intersection. This intersection is highly congested with vertical reinforcing steel, the closely spaced confining stirrups of the tower shaft, and the deck prestressing and reinforcement.The approach structures on either side of the main span are supported on hollow reinforced-concrete piers that measure 8.28 by 5 m in plan. The design and detailing of the piers are consistent with the latest versions of the ATC and AASHTO specifications for seismic design. Capacity design concepts were applied to the design of the piers. This approach required the use of seismic modeling with moment curvature elements to capture the inelastic behavior of elements during seismic excitation. Pushover analyses of the piers were performed to calculate the displacement capacity of the piers and to compare them with the deformations computed in the seismic time-history analyses. To ensure an adequate ductility of the piers-an essential feature of the capacity design approach-it was necessary to provide adequate concrete-confining steel at those locations within the pier bases where plastic hinges are expected to form.The deck of the cable-stayed main span is composed of single-cell box girders of cast-in-place concrete with internal, inclined steel struts and transverse posttensioned ribs, or stiffening beams, toward the tops. Each box girder segment is 4.5 m deep and 6 m long. To facilitate construction and enhance the bridge’s elegant design, similar sizes were used for the other bridge spans. An integral concrete overlay with a thickness of 350 mm was installed instead of an applied concrete overlayon the deck. In contrast to an applied overlay, the integral overlay was cast along with each segment during the deck erection. Diamond grinding equipment was used to obtain the desired surface profile and required smoothness. The minimum grinding depth was 5 mm.A total of 128 stay cables were used, the largest comprising 83 monostrands. All cables with a length of more than 80 m were equipped at their lower ends with internal hydraulic dampers. Corrosion protection for the monostrands involved galvanization of the wires through hot dipping, a tight high-density polyethylene (HDPE) sheath extruded onto each strand, and a special type of petroleum wax that fills all of the voids between the wires.The stays are spaecd every 6 m and are arranged in a fan pattern.They are designed to be stressed from the tower only and are anchored in line with a continuous stiffening beam at the centerline of the deck.The deck anchorage system is actually a composite steel frame that encapsulates two continous steel plates that anchor the stays and transfer the stay forces in a continuous and repetitive system-via shear studs-throuthout the extent of the cable-supported deck (see figure above).A steel frame was designed to transfer the stays’horizontal forces to the box girders through concrete-embedded longitudinal steel plates and to transfer the boxes’ vertical forces directly through the internal steel struts.This innovative and elegant load transfer system made rapid construction of the concrete deck segments-in cycles of three to five days-possible.In addition to the geotechnical and seismic analyses,several structural analyses were performed to accurately capture the behavior of this complex bridge.For the service-load analysis,which includes live,temperature,and wind loads,the engineers used SAP2000, a computer program created and maintained by Computers &Structrures,Inc.(CSI), of Berkeley, California.This program was selected for its ability to easily model the service loads and to account for tridimensional effects.For correct SAP2000 modeling, it was necessary to define a set of initial stresses on the cables, deck, and tower elements to capture the state of the structure at the end of construction.For the calculation of those initial stresses, a series of iterations on the basic model were performed to obtain the stay forces in the structure that balance both the bridges’s self-weight and the superimposed dead loads. Once the correct cable stiffness and stress distribution were obtained, all subsequent service-load analyses were performed to account for the geometric stiffness and P-deltaeffects, which consider the magnitude of an applied load (P) versus the displacement(delta).The seismic analysis of the structure was conducted using the SADSAP structural analysis program, also a CSI product, based on the differences in seismic motions that will be experienced at the different piers based on their distance from one another.This sophisticated program has the capability to model inelastic behavior in that flexural plastic hinges can readily be simulated.Plastic hinge elements were modeled at varous locations along the structure where the results from a preliminary response spectrum analysis in SAP2000 indicated that inelastic behavior might be expected.The time-history records pertaining to the site were used in conjunction with the SADSAP model to botain a performace-based design of the piers and towers and to verifh the design of several deck stctions.As previously mentioned,the construction contractor was brought on board early in the process;the company’s bid of $93 million was accepted and the project was awarded in March 2002.To guarantee unimpeded canal traffic,the bridge had to be constructed without the use of the canal waters.To accomplish this, the cast-in-place main-pain superstructure was erected using the balanced-cantilever method.Form travelers were used to accomplish this, and they were designed in such a way that they could be used as an integral part of the pier tables’falsework.After assembly on the ground, two 380 Mg form travelers were raised independently into the pier table casting position and connected to each other.After an initial learning period, the contractor was able to achieve a four-day cycle for the casting of the cantilevered deck segments, an achievement that greatly enhanced the ability of the team to construct the project on time.Once the side-span and mai-span closures were cast, the travelers had to be removed from locations adjacent to the towers rather than over water so as to avoid any influence on canal traffic.To save time, the towers approach structure, and piers were built simultaneously.The approach viaducts were designed and built using the span-by-span erection method by means of an underslung suupport truss.The east viaduct span was built first and the support truss was then removed and transferred to the west side so that it could be used to build the three spans of the west viaduct, one span at a time.The bridge construction was completeed in Auguse 2004 at a cost of approximately $2,780 per square meter.Its opening awaits the completion of the rest of the highway it serves.跨越世纪之桥1962年，横跨巴拿马运河的美国大桥作为仅有的固定连接开放交通车。

Accident Analysis and PreventionThis paper describes a project undertaken to establish a self-explaining roads (SER) design programmeon existing streets in an urban area. The methodology focussed on developing a process to identifyfunctional road categories and designs based on endemic road characteristics taken from functionalexemplars in the study area. The study area was divided into two sections, one to receive SER treatments designed to maximise visual differences between road categories, and a matched control area to remainuntreated for purposes of comparison. The SER design for local roads included increased landscaping andcommunity islands to limit forward visibility, and removal of road markings to create a visually distinctroad environment. In comparison, roads categorised as collectors received increased delineation, additionof cycle lanes, and improved amenity for pedestrians. Speed data collected 3 months after implementationshowed a significant reduction in vehicle speeds on local roads and increased homogeneity of speeds onboth local and collector roads. The objective speed data, combined with r esidents’ speed choice ratings,indicated that the project was successful in creating two discriminably different road categories.2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.1. Introduction1.1. BackgroundChanging the visual characteristics of roads to influencedriver behaviour has come to be called the self-explaining roads(SER) approach (Theeuwes, 1998; Theeuwes and Godthelp, 1995;Rothengatter, 1999). Sometimes referred to as sustainable safety,as applied in the Netherlands, the logic behind the approach isthe use of road designs that evoke correct expectations and drivingbehaviours from road users (Wegman et al., 2005; Weller etal., 2008). The SER approach focuses on the three key principlesof functionality, homogeneity, and predictability (van Vliet andSchermers, 2000). In practice, functionality requires the creation ofa few well-defined road categories (e.g., through roads, distributorroads, and access roads) and ensuring that the use of a particularroad matches its intended function. Multifunctional roadslead to contradictory design requirements, confusion in the mindsof drivers, and incorrect expectations and inappropriate drivingbehaviour. Clearly defined road categories promote homogeneity intheir use and prevent large differences in vehicle speed, direction,and mass. Finally, predictability, or recognisability, means keepingthe road design and layout within each category as uniform as possibleand clearly differentiated from other categories so that thefunction of a road is easily recognised and will elicit the correctbehaviour from road users. The SER approach has been pursued tothe largest extent in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom but ithas also been of some interest inNewZealand. In 2004, the NationalRoad Safety Committee and the Ministry of Transport articulateda new National Speed Management Initiative which stated “Theemphas is is not just on speed limit enforcement, it includes perceptualmeasures that influence the speed that a driver feels is appropriatefor the section of road upon which they are driving–in effect the ‘selfexplainingroad”’ (New Zealand Ministry of Transport, 2004).In cognitive psychological terms, the SER approach attempts toimprove road safety via two complementary avenues. The first is toidentify and use road designs that afford desirable driver behaviour.Perceptual properties such as road markings, delineated lane width,and roadside objects can function as affordances that serve as builtininstructions and guide driver behaviour, either implicitly orexplicitly (Charlton, 2007a; Elliott et al., 2003; Weller et al., 2008).This work is more or less a direct development of work on perceptualcountermeasures, perceptual cues in the roading environmentthat imply or suggest a particular speed or lane position, eitherattentionally or perceptually (Charlton, 2004, 2007b; Godley et al.,1999).A second aspect of the SER approach is to establish mentalschemata and scripts, memory representations that will allowroad users to easily categorise the type of road on which they are.1.2. Localised speed managementThe traditional approaches to improving speed management,traffic calming and local area traffic management (LATM) havefocussed on treating specific problem locations or “black spots”in response to crash occurrences or complaints from the public(Ewing, 1999). A potential disadvantage of these approaches is thataddressing the problem with localised treatments can lead to are-emergence of the problem at another location nearby. Further,when applied inappropriately, localised approaches may addressthe problem from only one perspective, without considering theimpact on other types of road users or residents. When traffic calmingtreatments rely on physical obstacles such as speed humpsthey can be very unpopular with bothresidents and road users andcan create new problems associated with noise, maintenance, andvandalism (Martens et al., 1997).From an SER perspective, treatments that are highly localizedor idiosyncratic may do more harm than good by adding to themultiplicity of road categories and driver uncertainty, rather thanbuilding driver expectations around a few uniform road types.Instead of considering a single location in isolation, SER roaddesigns are considered within a hierarchy of road functions; e.g.,access roads, collector roads, and arterial roads. Although SERschemes may employ physical design elements used in trafficcalming schemes (e.g., road narrowing with chicanes and accesscontrols) they also employ a range of more visually oriented featuressuch as median and edge line treatments, road markings,pavement surfaces, and roadside furniture. For an effective SERscheme it is important to select the combination of features that will afford the desired driver speeds and to ensure their consistentuse to form distinct categories of road types (van der Horst andKaptein, 1998; Wegman et al., 2005).road category that would meet the three SER principles of functional use, homogeneous use, and predictable use. Herrstedt (2006)reported on the use of a standardised catalogue of treatments compiledfrom researcher and practitioner advice. Goldenbeld and vanSchagen (2007) used a survey technique to determine road characteristicsthat minimise the difference between drivers’ ratingsof preferred speed and perceived safe speed and select road featuresthat make posted speeds “credible”. Aarts and Davidse (2007)used a driving simulator to verify whether the “essential recognisabilitycharacteristics” of different road classes conformed to theexpectations of road users. Weller et al. (2008) employed a range of statistical techniques, including factor analysis and categoricalclustering to establish the road characteristics that drivers use tocategorise different road types.The practical difficulties of implementing an SER system thusbecome a matter of finding answers to a series of questions. Howdoes one create a discriminable road hierarchy for an existingroad network? What road characteristics should be manipulatedto establish category-defining road features? How can SER roadfeatures and selection methods be made relevant and appropriatefor a local context? (Roaddesigns appropriate for The Netherlandswould not be suitable in New Zealand, in spite of its name.) A surveyof national and international expert opinion in order establishcategory-defining road features for New Zealand roads revealedthat the regional character and local topography of roads oftenundercut the usefulness of any standardised catalogue of designcharacteristics (Charlton and Baas, 2006).1.4. Goals of the present projectThe project described in this paper sought to develop anddemonstrate an SER process based on retrofitting existing roadsto establish a clear multi-level road hierarchy with appropriatedesign speeds, ensuring that each level in the hierarchy possesseda different “look and feel”. Rather than transferring SER designs already in use internationally, the project attempted to develop amethod that would build on the features of roads in the local area;extending road characteristics with desirable affordances to otherroads lacking them and creating discriminable road categories inthe process. Of interest was whether such a process could producecost-effective designs and whether those designs would be effectivein creating different road user expectations and distinct speedprofiles for roads of different categories.2. MethodsThe research methodology/SER design process developed forthis project progressed through a series of five stages: (1) selectionof study area; (2) identification of the road hierarchy; (3) analysisof the road features; (4) development of a design template; and (5)implementation and evaluation of the SER treatments. Each of thestages is described in the sections that follow.2.1. Selection of study areaThe study area for this project (Pt England/Glen Innes in Auckland)was selected in consultation with a project steering groupcomprised of representatives from the Ministry of Transport, NewZealand Transport Agency, New Zealand Police, and other localtransport and urban agencies. The study area was an establishedneighbourhood contained amix of private residences, small shops,schools, and churches, and was selected, in part, because of its historyof cyclist, pedestrian and loss of controlcrashes, almost twicethe number。

外文文献翻译原文：Asphalt Mixtures-Applications, Theory and Principles1 . ApplicationsAsphalt materials find wide usage in the construction industry. The use of asphalt as a cementing agent in pavements is the most common of its applications, however, and the one that will be consid ered here.Asphalt products are used to produce flexibl e pavements for highways and airports. The term “fl exible” is used to distinguish these pavements from those made with Portland cement, which are classified as rigid pavements, that is, having beam strength. This distinction is important because it provid es they key to the design approach which must be used for successful flexibl e pavement structures.The flexibl e pavement classification may be further broken d own into high and l ow types, the type usually depending on whether a solid or liquid asphalt product is used. The l ow types of pavement are mad e with the cutback, or emulsion, liquid products and are very widely used throughout this country. Descriptive terminology has been devel oped in various sections of the country to the extent that one pavement type may have several names. However, the general process foll owed in construction is similar for most l ow-type pavements and can be described as one in which the aggregate and the asphalt product are usually applied to the roadbed separately and there mixed or all owed to mix, forming the pavement.The high type of asphalt pavements is made with asphalt cements of some sel ected penetration grad e.Fig. ·1 A modern asphalt concrete highway. Should er striping is used as a safely feature.Fig. ·2 Asphalt concrete at the San Francisco International Airport.They are used when high wheel l oads and high volumes of traffic occur and are, therefore, often designed for a particular installation.2 . Theory of asphalt concrete mix designHigh types of flexible pavement are constructed by combining an asphalt cement, often in the penetration grad e of 85 to 100, with aggregates that are usually divided into three groups, based on size. The three groups are coarse aggregates, fine aggregates, and mineral filler. These will be discussed in d etail in later chapter.Each of the constituent parts mentioned has a particular function in the asphalt mixture, and mix proportioning or d esign is the process of ensuring that no function is negl ected. Before these individual functions are examined, however, the criteria for pavement success and failure should be consid ered so that d esign objectives can be established.A successful fl exible pavement must have several particular properties. First, it must be stable, that is to resistant to permanent displacement under l oad. Deformation of an asphalt pavement can occur in three ways, two unsatisfactory and one desirable. Plastic d eformationof a pavement failure and which is to be avoid ed if possible. Compressive deformation of the pavement results in a dimensional change in the pavement, and with this change come a l oss of resiliency and usually a d egree of roughness. This deformation is less serious than the one just described, but it, too, leads to pavement failure. The desirabl e type of deformation is an elastic one, which actually is beneficial to flexibl e pavements and is necessary to their long life.The pavement should be durable and should offer protection to the subgrade. Asphalt cement is not impervious to the effects of weathering, and so the design must minimize weather susceptibility. A durable pavement that does not crack or ravel will probably also protect the roadbed. It must be remembered that fl exible pavements transmit l oads to the subgrad e without significant bridging action, and so a dry firm base is absolutely essential.Rapidly moving vehicl es d epend on the tire-pavement friction factor for control and safety. The texture of the pavement surfaces must be such that an adequate skid resistance is developed or unsafe conditions result. The design procedure should be used to sel ect the asphalt material and aggregates combination which provid es a skid resistant roadway.Design procedures which yield paving mixtures embodying all these properties are not available. Sound pavements are constructed where materials and methods are selected by using time-tested tests and specifications and engineering judgments al ong with a so-call ed design method.The final requirement for any pavement is one of economy. Economy, again, cannot be measured directly, since true economy only begins with construction cost and is not fully determinable until the full useful life of the pavement has been record ed. If, however, the requirements for a stable, durable, and safe pavement are met with a reasonable safety factor, then the best interests of economy have probably been served as well.With these requirements in mind, the functions of the constituent parts can be examined with consideration give to how each part contributes to now-established objectives or requirements. The functions of the aggregates is to carry the l oad imposed on the pavement, and this is accomplished by frictional resistance and interl ocking between the individual pieces of aggregates. The carrying capacity of the asphalt pavement is, then, related to the surface texture (particularly that of the fine aggregate) and the density, or “compactness,”, of the aggregates. Surface texture varies with different aggregates, and while a rough surfacetexture is desired, this may not be available in some l ocalities. Dense mixtures are obtained by using aggregates that are either naturally or artificially “well grad ed”. This means that the fine aggregate serves to fill the voids in the coarser aggregates. In addition to affecting density and therefore strength characteristics, the grading also influences workability. When an excess of coarse aggregate is used, the mix becomes harsh and hard to work. When an excess of mineral filler is used, the mixes become gummy and difficult to manage.The asphalt cement in the fl exibl e pavement is used to bind the aggregate particl es together and to waterproof the pavements. Obtaining the proper asphalt content is extremely important and bears a significant influence on all the items marking a successful pavement. A chief objective of all the design methods which have been devel oped is to arrive at the best asphalt content for a particular combination of aggregates.3 . Mix design principl esCertain fundamental principles underlie the design procedures that have been developed. Before these procedures can be properly studied or applied, some consid eration of these principles is necessary.Asphalt pavements are composed of aggregates, asphalt cement, and voids. Consid ering the aggregate alone, all the space between particles is void space. The volume of aggregate voids depends on grading and can vary widely. When the asphalt cement is ad ded, a portion of these aggregate voids is fill ed and a final air-void volume is retained. The retention of thisair-void volume is very important to the characteristics of the mixture. The term air-void volume is used, since these voids are weightless and are usually expressed as a percentage of the total volume of the compacted mixture.An asphalt pavement carries the applied load by particl e friction and interlock. If the particl es are pushed apart for any reason , then the pavement stability is d estroyed. This factor indicates that certainly no more asphalt shoul d be ad ded than the aggregate voids can readily hold. However ,asphalt cement is susceptible to volume change and the pavement is subject to further compaction under use. If the pavement has no air voids when placed, or if it loses them under traffic, then the expanding asphalt will overfl ow in a condition known as bleeding. The l oss of asphalt cement through bl eeding weakens the pavement and also reduces surface friction, making the roadway hazard ous.Fig. ·3 Cross section of an asphalt concrete pavement showing the aggregate framework bound together by asphalt cement.The need for a minimum air-void volume (usually 2 or 3 per cent ) has been established. In addition, a maximum air-void volume of 5 to 7 per cent shoul d not be exceed. An excess of air voids promotes raveling of the pavement and also permits water to enter and speed up the deteriorating processes. Also, in the presence of excess air the asphalt cement hard ens and ages with an accompanying loss of durability and resiliency.The air-void volume of the mix is determined by the d egree of compaction as well as by the asphalt content. For a given asphalt content, a lightly compacted mix will have a large voids volume and a l ower d ensity and a greater strength will result. In the laboratory, the compaction is controlled by using a specified hammer and regulating the number of bl ows and the energy per blow. In the fiel d, the compaction and the air voids are more difficult to control and tests must be made no specimens taken from the compacted pavement to cheek on the d egree of compaction being obtained. Traffic further compact the pavement, andall owance must be mad e for this in the design. A systematic checking of the pavement over an extend ed period is needed to given factual information for a particular mix. A change in density of several per cent is not unusual, however.Asphalt content has been discussed in connection with various facets of the ix design problem. It is a very important factor in the mix design and has a bearing an all the characteristics ld a successful pavement: stability, skid resistance, durability, and economy. As has been mentioned, the various design procedures are intended to provid e a means for selecting the asphalt content . These tests will be consid ered in detail in a future chapter ,butthe relationship between asphalt content and the measurable properties of stability, unit weight, and air voids will be discussed here.Fig.4 Variations in stability, unit weight, and air-void content with asphalt cement content.If the gradation and type of aggregate, the degree of compaction, and the type of asphalt cement are controll ed, then the strength varies in a predictable manner. The strength will increase up to some optimum asphalt content and then decrease with further additions. The pattern of strength variation will be different when the other mix factors are changed, and so only a typical pattern can be predicted prior to actual testing.Unit weight varies in the same manner as strength when all other variabl e are controll ed. It will reach some peak value at an asphalt content near that determined from the strength curve and then fall off with further additions.As already mentioned, the air-void volume will vary with asphalt content. However, the manner of variation is different in that increased asphalt content will d ecrease air-void volume to some minimum value which is approached asymptotically. With still greater additions of asphalt material the particles of aggregate are only pushed apart and no change occurs in air-void volume.In summary, certain principles involving aggregate gradation, air-void volume, asphalt content, and compaction mist be understood before proceeding to actual mix d esign. The proper design based on these principl es will result in sound pavements. If these principles are overl ooked, the pavement may fail by one or more of the recognized modes of failure: shoving, rutting, corrugating, becoming slick when the max is too ‘rich’; raveling, cracking, having low durability whe n the mix is too ‘l ean’.It should be again emphasized that the strength of flexible is, more accurately, a stabilityand d oes not indicate any ability to bridge weak points in the subgrade by beam strength. No asphalt mixture can be successful unless it rests on top of a properly designed and constructed base structure. This fact, that the surface is no better than the base, must be continually in the minds of those concerned with any aspect of fl exible pavement work.译文：沥青混合料的应用、理论和原则1、应用沥青材料如今在建筑行业广泛使用。

英文资料SuspensionSuspension is the term given to the system of springs, shock absorbers and linkages that connects a vehicle to its wheels. Suspension systems serve a dual purpose –contributing to the car's roadholding/handling and braking for good active safety and driving pleasure, and keeping vehicle occupants comfortable and reasonably well isolated from road noise, bumps, and vibrations,etc. These goals are generally at odds, so the tuning of suspensions involves finding the right compromise. It is important for the suspension to keep the road wheel in contact with the road surface as much as possible, because all the forces acting on the vehicle do so through the contact patches of the tires. The suspension also protects the vehicle itself and any cargo or luggage from damage and wear. The design of front and rear suspension of a car may be different.Leaf springs have been around since the early Egyptians.Ancient military engineers used leaf springs in the form of bows to power their siege engines, with little success at first. The use of leaf springs in catapults was later refined and made to work years later. Springs were not only made of metal, a sturdy tree branch could be used as a spring, such as with a bow.Horse drawn vehiclesBy the early 19th century most British horse carriages were equipped with springs; wooden springs in the case of light one-horse vehicles to avoid taxation, and steel springs in larger vehicles. These were made of low-carbon steel and usually took the form of multiple layer leaf springs.[1]The British steel springs were not well suited for use on America's rough roads of the time, and could even cause coaches to collapse if cornered too fast. In the 1820s, the Abbot Downing Company of Concord, New Hampshire developed a system whereby the bodies of stagecoaches were supported on leather straps called "thoroughbraces", which gave a swinging motion instead of the jolting up and down of a spring suspension (the stagecoach itself was sometimes called a "thoroughbrace")AutomobilesAutomobiles were initially developed as self-propelled versions of horse drawn vehicles. However, horse drawn vehicles had been designed for relatively slow speeds and their suspension was not well suited to the higher speeds permitted by the internal combustion engine.In 1903 Mors of Germany first fitted an automobile with shock absorbers. In 1920 Leyland used torsion bars in a suspension system. In 1922 independent front suspension was pioneered on the Lancia Lambda and became more common in mass market cars from 1932.[2]Important propertiesSpring rateThe spring rate (or suspension rate) is a component in setting the vehicle's ride height or its location in the suspension stroke. Vehicles which carry heavy loads will often have heavier springs to compensate for the additional weight that would otherwise collapse a vehicle to the bottom of its travel (stroke). Heavier springs are also used in performance applications where the loading conditions experienced are more extreme. Springs that are too hard or too soft cause the suspension to become ineffective because they fail to properly isolate the vehicle from the road. Vehicles that commonly experience suspension loads heavier than normal have heavy or hard springs with a spring rate close to the upper limit for that vehicle's weight. This allows the vehicle to perform properly under a heavy load when control is limited by the inertia of the load. Riding in an empty truck used for carrying loads can be uncomfortable for passengers because of its high spring rate relative to the weight of the vehicle. A race car would also be described as having heavy springs and would also be uncomfortably bumpy. However, even though we say they both have heavy springs, the actual spring rates for a 2000 lb race car and a 10,000 lb truck are very different. A luxury car, taxi, or passenger bus would be described as having soft springs. Vehicles with worn out or damaged springs ride lower to the ground which reduces the overall amount of compression available to the suspension and increases the amount of body lean. Performance vehicles can sometimes have spring rate requirements other than vehicle weight and load.Mathematics of the spring rateSpring rate is a ratio used to measure how resistant a spring is to being compressed or expanded during the spring's deflection. The magnitude of the spring force increases as deflection increases according to Hooke's Law. Briefly, this can be stated aswhereF is the force the spring exertsk is the spring rate of the spring.x is the displacement from equilibrium length i.e. the length at which the spring is neither compressed or stretched.Spring rate is confined to a narrow interval by the weight of the vehicle,load the vehicle will carry, and to a lesser extent by suspension geometry and performance desires.Spring rates typically have units of N/mm (or lbf/in). An example of a linear spring rate is 500 lbf/in. For every inch the spring is compressed, it exerts 500 lbf. Anon-linear spring rate is one for which the relation between the spring's compression and the force exerted cannot be fitted adequately to a linear model. For example, the first inch exerts 500 lbf force, the second inch exerts an additional 550 lbf (for a total of 1050 lbf), the third inch exerts another 600 lbf (for a total of 1650 lbf). In contrast a 500 lbf/in linear spring compressed to 3 inches will only exert 1500 lbf.The spring rate of a coil spring may be calculated by a simple algebraic equation or it may be measured in a spring testing machine. The spring constant k can be calculated as follows:where d is the wire diameter, G is the spring's shear modulus (e.g., about 12,000,000 lbf/in² or 80 GPa for steel), and N is the number of wraps and D is the diameter of the coil.Wheel rateWheel rate is the effective spring rate when measured at the wheel. This is as opposed to simply measuring the spring rate alone.Wheel rate is usually equal to or considerably less than the spring rate. Commonly, springs are mounted on control arms, swing arms or some other pivoting suspension member. Consider the example above where the spring rate was calculated to be500 lbs/inch, if you were to move the wheel 1 inch (without moving the car), the spring more than likely compresses a smaller amount. Lets assume the spring moved 0.75 inches, the lever arm ratio would be 0.75 to 1. The wheel rate is calculated by taking the square of the ratio (0.5625) times the spring rate. Squaring the ratio is because the ratio has two effects on the wheel rate. The ratio applies to both the force and distance traveled.Wheel rate on independent suspension is fairly straight-forward. However, special consideration must be taken with some non-independent suspension designs. Take the case of the straight axle. When viewed from the front or rear, the wheel rate can be measured by the means above. Yet because the wheels are not independent, when viewed from the side under acceleration or braking the pivot point is at infinity (because both wheels have moved) and the spring is directly inline with the wheel contact patch. The result is often that the effective wheel rate under cornering is different from what it is under acceleration and braking. This variation in wheel rate may be minimized by locating the spring as close to the wheel as possible.Roll couple percentageRoll couple percentage is the effective wheel rates, in roll, of each axle of the vehicle just as a ratio of the vehicle's total roll rate. Roll Couple Percentage is critical in accurately balancing the handling of a vehicle. It is commonly adjusted through the use of anti-roll bars, but can also be changed through the use of different springs.A vehicle with a roll couple percentage of 70% will transfer 70% of its sprung weight transfer at the front of the vehicle during cornering. This is also commonly known as "Total Lateral Load Transfer Distribution" or "TLLTD".Weight transferWeight transfer during cornering, acceleration or braking is usually calculated per individual wheel and compared with the static weights for the same wheels.The total amount of weight transfer is only affected by 4 factors: the distance between wheel centers (wheelbase in the case of braking, or track width in the case of cornering) the height of the center of gravity, the mass of the vehicle, and the amount of acceleration experienced.The speed at which weight transfer occurs as well as through which components it transfers is complex and is determined by many factors including but not limited to roll center height, spring and damper rates, anti-roll bar stiffness and the kinematic design of the suspension links.Unsprung weight transferUnsprung weight transfer is calculated based on the weight of the vehicle's components that are not supported by the springs. This includes tires, wheels, brakes, spindles, half the control arm's weight and other components. These components are then (for calculation purposes) assumed to be connected to a vehicle with zero sprung weight. They are then put through the same dynamic loads. The weight transfer for cornering in the front would be equal to the total unsprung front weight times theG-Force times the front unsprung center of gravity height divided by the front track width. The same is true for the rear.Suspension typeDependent suspensions include:∙Satchell link∙Panhard rod∙Watt's linkage∙WOBLink∙Mumford linkage∙Live axle∙Twist beam∙Beam axle∙leaf springs used for location (transverse or longitudinal)The variety of independent systems is greater and includes:∙Swing axle∙Sliding pillar∙MacPherson strut/Chapman strut∙Upper and lower A-arm (double wishbone)∙multi-link suspension∙semi-trailing arm suspension∙swinging arm∙leaf springsArmoured fighting vehicle suspensionMilitary AFVs, including tanks, have specialized suspension requirements. They can weigh more than seventy tons and are required to move at high speed over very rough ground. Their suspension components must be protected from land mines and antitank weapons. Tracked AFVs can have as many as nine road wheels on each side. Many wheeled AFVs have six or eight wheels, to help them ride over rough and soft ground. The earliest tanks of the Great War had fixed suspensions—with no movement whatsoever. This unsatisfactory situation was improved with leaf spring suspensions adopted from agricultural machinery, but even these had very limited travel. Speeds increased due to more powerful engines, and the quality of ride had to be improved. In the 1930s, the Christie suspension was developed, which allowed the use of coil springs inside a vehicle's armoured hull, by redirecting the direction of travel using a bell crank. Horstmann suspension was a variation which used a combination of bell crank and exterior coil springs, in use from the 1930s to the 1990s.By the Second World War the other common type was torsion-bar suspension, getting spring force from twisting bars inside the hull—this had less travel than the Christie type, but was significantly more compact, allowing the installation of larger turret rings and heavier main armament. The torsion-bar suspension, sometimes including shock absorbers, has been the dominant heavy armored vehicle suspension since the Second World War.中文翻译悬吊系统(亦称悬挂系统或悬载系统)是描述一种由弹簧、减震筒和连杆所构成的车用系统，用于连接车辆与其车轮。

河北农业大学现代科技学院毕业英文文献翻译题目：Bridge学部：工程技术学部专业班级：土木0603班学号：2006614100322学生姓名：周炯指导教师姓名：宇云飞指导教师职称：副教授二〇一〇年五月二十一日The Road of ChinaABSTRACTKey words:express way,In 1981,China had only 17,500km of road, 400km of motorway and 4,000km of highway and 2,300km of regional road. Around 75% of these roads were paved. By the end of 1922, these figures had changed dramatically, with the total being over a million kilometers of highways. Of this, 926,452km were paved(92%), linking all the major towns in the country, with the exception of Motuo in Tibet.Present figures indicate that more than 70% of villages and towns are now connected to the highway network. Four major highways link Lhasa with Sichun, Xinjiang, Qinghai Hu and Kathmandu (Nepal).A programme of expressway building began in the mid 1980s and by 1993 there were more than 522km of these high speed links, including Shenyang to Dalian, Beijing to Tanggu, Shanghai to Jiading, Guangzhou to Foshan and Xi’an to Linton.So who is using these road? The general public’s impression of China is people on bicycles, but this is now changing. Since 1977 , the number of privately-owned passenger cars has increased by over 4,000% to 2.3mil. and the number of commercial vehicles produced has increased from 328,000 to nearly 500,000.As with most products, the demand for an increased number of better quality roads drives the supply, and the upwardly mobile Chinese, as well as industry, are forcing investment in a better and much more comprehensive infrastructure system.The Chinese government has recognized the need for investment in infrastructure and finance minister Liu Zhongli has announced that more than $500bil. will be allocated to the infrastructure over the next decade, “We need to raise funds internationally, either through bond issues or through loans provided by international financial institutions and foreign governments”.China is definitely attracting investment. A recent report in Development Business said, “China is gaining prominence in the portfolio of the International Finance Corporation（IFC），as the World Bank Group’s private sector arm adopts strategies that will dovetail neatly with Beijing’s own priorities.”The central government has announced its intention to focus on projects along the Yangtze River, beginning at Shanghai and ending at the province of Sichuan, with special emphasis on infrastructure.In Shanghai alone, transport and planning officials have said that the city needs an investment of at least $17bil. over the next four years to develop the road infrastructure network. Over the last five years, the city has relied on World Bank, Asian Development Bank and foreign government loans to fund its infrastructure development. It has also tried, on a limited basis, the build-operate-transfer method, toattract foreign capital for a multi-track tunnel and has contracted out the management of two bridges and a road tunnel.Part of the Ninth Five-year plan, which started this year, covers the construction of three east-west trunk road, three north-south trunk roads and a light rail system.One of the major projects under consideration is the consideration of the Hebei and Liaoning Expressways, which the government describes as, “an attempt to alleviate constraints to further economic growth that caused by the inadequate road transport infrastructure in the area.”The intention is to improve access to the hinterland economics of the respective provinces and to reduce pressure on the rail network. The Hebei Project will cover the development of approximately 200km of the Beijing to Shenyang Expressway, while the Liaoning Project will cover about 110km of the northeastern transport corridor from Teiling to Siping.On the outer edges of the infrastructure policy, the Chinese government has invest nearly $18mil. on road projects in Tibet, including the $17mil. project to improve the highway between Sichuan and Tibet and the road linking Gonggar airport at Lhasa and Zetang in southern Tibet.Recent reports show that Wuhan city in Hubei Province has spent more than $2bil. of overseas funds in building 200 infrastructure projects since 1985, including the construction of the ChangJiang River highway bridge, with another bridge planned over the Hanshui River.Several large European road machinery equipment manufacturers are having considerable success in China, and German company Wirtgen has provided machinery for a number of major projects, including the new Shenzen to Shantou Expressway. The contractor, the Guizhou Provincial Road and bridge Company, is refurbishing 146km of the six-lane highway with funding from the World Bank.A smaller (33km) new concrete pavement section of the same road is being constructed by the Pavement Division of the local company, again funded by the World Bank. On the other side of the pearl River Delta, Wirtgen machines are also paving part of the 80km long Foshan to Kaiping Expressway.American company CMI has delivered equipment to the Jiangsu Road and Bridge Construction Corporation for use on the 284km-long Shanghai-Nanjing Expressway. Construction is partly financed by Japanese and partly by Malaysian investors. CMI equipment is also working on the Huadu Highway in Guangzhou and the Yantai-Weihai Highway.The number over the last few years has not been attracting the investment—that seems to be going fairly well for the Chinese, fuelled by western companies’ greed for what they see as the last great market in the world—but finding the specialist consultants and planners to develop the infrastructure and to ensure a tight grip on the reins of large scale developments, to prevent sprawling messes emerging across the nation.It has become apparent that the indigenous infrastructure planning and design industry is not yet sophisticated enough to undertake the scale of works in the short time required. This vacuum has sucked in a mass of foreign planners who claim to have the knowledge to carry out the massive task of Revitalizing China’sInfrastructure.One of these, Binnie Consultants, opened an office in China in 1992, located in the Shenzen SEZ. It has focused mainly on multi-disciplinary infrastructure projects which have included the Shenzen River crossing and the Kam Tin River Bridge on the Hong Kong/Mainland border. The Shenzen River Bridge consists of two adjoining, two-lane concrete bridges with main spans of 85 metres across the river. A 350m-long elevated approach road is provided on each side of the bridge and the construction was shared between the Hong Kong and Shenzen authorities.Similarly, Bechtel, the US-based engineering and construction giant, has recent been granted a construction license to work in China. This allows the firm to enter contracts in its own name and to undertake projects with foreign investment. Currently, Bechtel, in conjunction with CITIC, is developing the Superport and associated infrastructure works at Daxie Island, off the coast of Shanghai.The recent opening of the Jiangsu SWK Engineering Consultants Company heralded the first Chinese-Foreign engineering consultant JV at provincial level in China. The new company combines the talents of the Jiangsu Provincial Transport Planning and Design Institute (JPTPDI) and Scott Wilson Kirkpatrick HK Ltd.According to Li Yi Zhi, director of JPTPDI, the partnership, “…will provide consultant engineering services for transportation, planning and traffic engineering and urban infrastructure.”Feasibility studies are still underway for what will be the largest infrastructure ever planned in China, and the world’s longest sea crossing, the Bohai Channel Project. The 57km-long chain of bridges and tunnels will link the Shandong and Liaodong peninsulas across the Bohai Sea to the east of Korea Bay.Construction is due to start at the beginning of the next century at an estimated cost of $7 bil. The crossing will combine a railway and a highway, which will involve the construction of seven bridges and a large tunnel. The plan to link the two provinces is an attempt to boost the economic development of the north-east, following the declaration of the Bohai Rim as an independent ecomomic zone under China’s strategic development plan. Some of China’s largest cities are located around Bohai Bay, including 11 cities with populations of more million people.One of the busiest regions in the country is the Ningxia Hui Autonomous region, which has opened 1,524km of new roads to traffic in the past five years, bringing its total length to 8,540km and linking all the towns and some 80% of its villages. At the end of 1995, the region had over 1,000km of Category2 roads, accounting for 12% of its total kilometrage and ranking fifth in the whole of China.This region offers a good insight into the relationship between good roads and transport infrastructure and economic growth. Since the road building programme started, trade between the region and its ports on the eastern coast has increased tenfold and the building of new road bridges over the yellow river now links the coal production base with its grain bases on both sides of the river. With the improvement of its roads, the number of motor vehicles in the region has grown, on average, by 10% each year.Construction work for the Jin Ma Bridge, one of the key projects on theGuangzhou-Zhaoqing highway, is well underway and when complete, the 88km highway, stretching from Ya Yao Town, Nanhai to Maan, Gaoyao, will link the Guangdong and Foshan Highway. The bridge is 1637.6m long and 26.5m wide and will link up Jinben, Sanshui in the east with Jinli, Gaoyao in the west, spanning across the main stream of the Xijiang.According to World Bank forecasts, total investment in China will hit $280 bill. If the country maintains its annual economic growth rate of 8 to 9% until the year 2000. The Bank’s experts estimate that infrastructure will account for 7 to 8% of China’s GDP in the next five year.桥摘要关键词：1981年，中国的道路只有17500km，其中400km高速公路和4000km的道路和2300km地级公路。

附录外文资料原文及翻译Porous Elastic Road Surface as An Ultimate Highway NoiseMeasureS. MEIARASHIAdvanced Material Team, Material & Geotechnical Research Group, Public WorksResearch Institute, Japan***********.jpAbstract:Highway traffic noise in urban areas of Japan is a serious problem, not only for residents along highways, but also for highway administrators. Only 13 percent of urban highways have met the environment standard for noise. Noise barriers cannot be used as a noise countermeasure on the majority of highways on which access is not controlled. Noise levels of areas along some urban highways exceed the standard by 15 dB(A) or more. This problem is impeding new highway construction in urban areas. Porous asphalt pavement has recently been introduced on urban highways in Japan. Its noise reduction effect of 3 dB(A) is insufficient, because it only improves the noise environment satisfaction rate by a few percent. Furthermore, the durability of its noise reduction effect usually seems to be only three years, which is shorter than its life-cycle as pavement.The Public Works Research Institute (PWRI) has, since 1993, been developing a new low-noise pavement named “Porous Elastic Road Surface” (PERS). This new pavement has a porous structure composed of granulate rubber made from old used tires as its aggregate and urethane resin as its binder. Its porosity is approximately 40 percent. The pavement was first proposed in Sweden in the 1970s, however, Swedish researchers have failed to improve it as a practical pavement. Noise reduction levels are 15 dB(A) for cars and 8 dB(A) for trucks. The author estimates that the potential noise reduction levels in Leq exceed 10 dB(A). More than 90 percent of highways in urban areas would meet the standard if this noise reduction level were achieved. The PWRI has already solved several of the problems with PERS, for example,insufficient adhesion between the pavement and the base course, low skid resistance, and its poor fireproof performance. Its technical level has already reached the stage of test construction on urban highways.This paper examines the general performance of PERS obtained through past development at the PWRI. It also summarizes the results of recent research done to further improve the noise reduction levels of PERS and the first test construction using PERS in Japan. The final noise reduction target for any type of vehicle is between 15-20 dB(A). The author expects that PERS will reduce highway traffic noise problems in urban areas of Japan to a minor, negligible level in the near future.Key words:pavement, noise reduction, highway traffic noise, skid resistance, durability, adhesion 1．IntrodutionThe Public Works Research Institute (PWRI) has, since 1993, been developing a new low-noise pavement named “Porous Elastic Road Surface” (PERS). This new pavement has a porous structure composed of granulate rubber made from old used tires as its aggregate and urethane resin as its binder. Its porosity is approximately 40 percent. The pavement was first proposed in Sweden in the 1970s, however, Swedish researchers have failed to improve it as a practical pavement. Noise reduction levels are 15 dB(A) for cars and 8 dB(A) for trucks. The author estimates that the potential noise reduction levels in Leq exceed 10 dB(A). More than 90 percent of highways in urban areas would meet the standard if this noise reduction level were achieved. The PWRI has already solved several of the problems with PERS, for example, insufficient adhesion between the pavement and the base course, low skid resistance, and its poor fireproof performance. Its technical level has already reached the stage of test construction on urban highwaysThis paper examines the general performance of PERS obtained through past development at the PWRI. It also summarizes the results of noise reduction levels of PERS at the first test construction site in Japan. The first part deals mainly with improvement of noise reduction effect with changing its porosity and thickness,adhesion to the base course, durability, wear resistance, wet friction, and fire resistance, whereas the second part focuses on the laboratory performance testing in advance to identify a new construction method of PERS before trial construction on highways and the noise reduction effect observed at the construction sitetest technology2.1 Noise reductionThe author has conducted four noise measurements in total at the PWRI testing course to improve the noise reduction effect of PERS, including the first one described above. The second noise measurement in 1995 was focused on the influence of porosity on noise reduction. Figure 2 shows that noise reduction of PERS is almost saturated at the porosity of 35% and over. In the third noise measurement of 1996, a major issue was the effect of PERS thickness on noise reduction. The optimal PERS noise reduction levels for passenger cars, light trucks, and heavy trucks are 14-16 dB(A), 4-5 dB(A), and 3-5 dB(A), respectively. Figure 3 reveals that the noise reduction of PERS becomes a maximum at the thickness of 3 cm. Considering the relatively small difference of noise reduction between 3 cm thickness of PERS and 2 cm thickness of PERS, and material cost reduction, the optimal thickness of PERS seems to exist between 2 cm and 3 cm. The optimal PERS noise reduction levels for passenger cars, light trucks, and heavy trucks are 13-19 dB(A), 8-9 dB(A), and 6-10 dB(A),respectively.trucks are 8-10 dB (A). As a result, the author had to improve wet friction while sacrificing noise reduction for passenger carsperformance than DAP, with far better deformation performance than conventional pavement such as DENAPFigure 4 - Accelerated pavement test2.5 Fire resistanceFire resistance was thought to be a potential problem, since rubber may burn fiercely.The fire hazard problem has been studied by PWRI. Squares of PERS 5×5 m were placed outside a laboratory, 36 liters of diesel oil or gasoline were sprinkled on the surface as well as on an adjacent (conventional) asphalt pavement. The fluid was then ignited with a torch, and factors such as pavement materials, height of flames and generation of smoke were observed and the tests were also filmed.In the experiments, three surfaces were compared: dense asphalt concrete, porous asphalt concrete and the 5×5 m panels of PERS. The results, as given in Table 1,show that regarding spreading speed and flame height, the PERS was safer than thedense asphalt concrete. Figure 8 illustrates these tests.Table 1 - Fire resistance test conditionSurface type Burning of fuel andpavement materialsFlame height Smoke generationDenap Fuel oil spreadingover the pavementsurface stronglyburned with reddishflames but thepavement did not 2.5-3.0 m Fuel oil burnedincompletely,producing a columnof black smoke.burn.Dap Fuel oil evaporatingthrough the voids ofthe pavement ignited,causing blue flames.However, pavementmaterials did notburn.

F irst test constructionPERS construction in highways requires the structure to be developed as a totalpavement system and a construction method that is very different from the previous ones in PWRI test courses. There are two reasons for improving the structure and construction method.The first one is a time constraint. One potential application of PERS is forheavy-traffic arterial highways in urban areas, where the working time is limited to 10 hours at night (such as from 8 PM to 6 AM) to avoid causing traffic congestion. The standard area of pavement resurfacing of an urban highway is 2,000-3,000 square meters per day. The construction work involves removing the existing wearing course & base course, constructing new semi-flexible pavement as the base course, putting adhesive on the base course, and paving PERS as shown in Figure 9(a). Considering the working time before paving PERS, it is impossible to complete all the works within the limit.The second reason is for quality control of adhesive performance. In the early stage of development of PERS, there were various troubles concerning the adhesive as mentioned in the previous section. The polymer type of adhesive is very sensitive to the ambient conditions of curing such as temperature and humidity. It seems very difficult to maintain stable performance of the adhesive during outdoor work.In response to these problems, pre-fabricated types of PERS would appear to be the only solution. The main pre-fabricated types of pavement products are Inter-Locking Block (ILB), Pre-stressed Concrete Panel (PCP), and Reinforced Concrete Panel (RCP). The ILB has been widely used for pedestrian ways especially in prestige areas and shopping malls, where architects and planners are interested in the visual impact of paving. Some ILBs are also to be found in industrial areas, such as storage yards and dock-side paving, where the main concerns are structural performance, cost and maintenance. The PCP is pre-tensioned in the transverse direction during fabrication, and post-tensioned together in the longitudinal direction after placement. The PCP and RCP are mainly used for sections where extremely high durability is required, such as the pavement in tunnels..In view of the time constraints, it is impossible to use PCP and RCP as the base course of PERS because of the slow speed of construction of less than 100 square meters per ten hours. The present mechanical method of laying ILB improves the construction efficiency and overcomes the constraint. With this background, the author has proposed using ILB for the first test construction of PERS. However, ILB has been used in very few cases for highways and its durability for the surface course is unknown. The author has clarified the initial durability of the ILB-PERS composite surface by accelerated pavement tests in the laboratory shown in Figure 9(b). No fatal damage to the surface was found after 12,000 passes of the test truck.PERS was first constructed at Tazawa of National Highway Route 46 on 18 October, 2002. The total number of lanes is two and the width of each is 3.75 meters. The total length is 20 meters. The traffic volume, heavy traffic ratio, and speed limit are 10,120 vehicles per day, 20%, and 60k m/h, respectively. Figure 10 shows the general view of the section and the initial condition of the PERS surface. The author measured the noise of individual vehicles by using a special method proposed by Meiarashi (1996). The vehicles were limited to smaller ones such as passenger cars and light trucks, because of the short section length. Figure 11 illustrates the arrangement of equipment, including a sound level meter as a microphone and two sets ofphoto-detectors as a speed meter. Figure 12 shows the A-weighted peak levels of vehicles measured at PERS and DENAP. When noise reduction levels are defined as the difference in levels between PERS and DENAP, they are approximately given by the formula:ΔPWL = 0.1V4. ConclusionThe Public Works Research Institute (PWRI) has, since 1993, been developing a new low-noise pavement named “Porous Elastic Road Surface” (PERS). The author estimates that the potential noise reduction levels in Leq exceed 10 dB(A). The PWRI has already solved several of the problems with PERS such as insufficient adhesion between the pavement and the base course, low skid resistance, and poor fireproofperformance.Based on the above research results, PERS was first constructed at the National Highway Route 46. Noise reduction levels measured in the field were less than expected, because the size of the construction area was very small.The author will continue these investigations in the field and will attempt another test construction using a more efficient construction method than ILB.References:[1]Alan Lilley (1988): “Precast Concrete Paving History, Design, Applications andProblems”, The Journal of the Institute of Highways and Transportation, pp. 18-25 [2] David Merritt, B.
