Assessment of HEC-18 scour equations for bottomless culverts based on Kansas field data
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012)
One of the main causes of bridge failure is scour at the abutments or piers. Scour is
caused by increased velocities of water through bridge openings. Sediment is carried away
from the foundations by high flows causing ...
Characterization of "t-z" model design parameters for augered cast-in-place piles using field load test data
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-08-24)
With the increasing use of augered cast-in-place piles in new construction, it is important that proper design parameters be incorporated when evaluating pile capacity and performance using reliability-based design methods. ...
