Many recent collapses concerned old bridges, but also modern ones, often having the same
age, the same types of materials, and the same technologies. Therefore, it is crucial to …

This study presents a nondestructive evaluation method based on guided ultrasonic waves
(GUW) to quantify corrosion damage of prestressing steel strands. Specifically, a reference …

In order to investigate the stress distribution in a prestressed steel strand and the
development of bond stress between the steel strand and concrete, a new technology of …

For the current problem of detection of grouting defects in posttensioned prestressed
concrete members, the paper takes a single‐layer arrangement of prestressed pipes as the …

In response to the difficulty in effectively dealing with grouting defects in corrugated pipes
within a suspension prestressed concrete arch bridge, a method for assessing the …

Deterioration of concrete structures caused by corrosion have caused worldwide concerns
especially for pre-stressed concrete (PC) structures because of their extensive use in …

The impact-echo method is widely used to detect grouting defects within prestressed
concrete tendon ducts. However, when the distance from the rebar to the test surface was …

Many recent collapses concerned old bridges, but also modern ones often having the same
age, the same types of materials, and the same technologies. Therefore, it is important to …

The present report includes the results obtained from a literature survey about corrosion-
induced failures of post-tensioned bridges and a few other cases of prestressed structures …

: In this study, a theoretical model is deve loped to simulate the re-anchorage of a ruptured
bonded post-tensioning tendon. This includes estimating the re-anchorage length and stress …
