Course Description:

'' As our transportation infrastructure ages, there is an increasing need on the part of owners to demonstrate greater duty of care. One of the implications of this is the requirement for more thorough evaluation of structure integrity.

In many cases, the evaluation of existing bridge conditions and safety is done by visual inspection. However, many defects are not evident either because they are physically concealed, as in underground components, or lie beneath surfaces as in corrosion damage. As well, once located, the impact of these defects on safe load carrying capacity is difficult to determine. Selecting appropriate and cost-effective rehabilitation measures is often hampered by limited information on the structural defects.

In this two day seminar, you will gain a strong working knowledge of the techniques that are applicable to the evaluation of bridges, including steel, concrete, and timber structures, with attention to load carrying capacity. You will be better able to select the right load test for bridge evaluation, and to interpret the results produced.

The seminar will mainly cover the interpretation of Chapter 14 “Evaluation�of the 2006 Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code (CHBDC), and related topics in Chapter 3 “Loads�and Chapter 5 “Method of Analysis� Bending and shear strength of bridge girders rehabilitated or strengthened using Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets or bars will be presented in the second day of the seminar based on CHBDC provisions stated in Chapter 16. Solved examples for bridge evaluation will be presented for concrete and steel.

Objective
To provide the knowledge required to determine, what tests should be used what information regarding bridge conditions can be obtained from them, and how the evaluation information should be interpreted.
