Bridge design and construction technologies have experienced remarkable developments in recent decades, and numerous long-span bridges have been built or are under construction all over the world. Cable-supported bridges, including cable-stayed bridges and suspension bridges, are the main type of these long-span bridges, and are widely used in highways crossing gorges, rivers, and gulfs, due to their superior structural mechanical properties and beautiful appearance. However, cable-supported bridges suffer from harsh environmental effects and complex loading conditions, such as heavier traffic loads, strong winds, corrosion effects, and other natural disasters. Therefore, the lifetime safety evaluation of these long-span bridges considering the rigorous service environments is an essential task.
Features:
Presents a comprehensive explanation of system reliability evaluation for all aspects of cable-supported bridges.
Includes a comprehensive presentation of the application of system reliability theory in bridge design, safety control, and operational management.
Addresses fatigue reliability, dynamic reliability and seismic reliability assessment of bridges.
Presents a complete investigation and case study in each chapter, allowing readers to understand the applicability for real-world scenarios.
Reliability and Safety of Cable-Supported Bridges provides a comprehensive application and guidelines for system reliability techniques in cable-supported bridges. Serving as a practical educational resource for both undergraduate and graduate level students, practicing engineers, and researchers, it also intends to provide an intuitive appreciation for probability theory, statistical methods, and reliability analysis methods.

Reinforced concrete is the most widely used construction material in the world, and extended performance is rightly expected. Many structures are in aggressive environments, of critical importance and may be irreplaceable, so repair and protection are vital. This book surveys deterioration of concrete, particularly corrosion of the steel reinforcement, and the various chemical, biological, physical and mechanical causes of deterioration. It outlines condition survey and diagnosis techniques by on-site and laboratory measurements. It sets out mechanical methods of protection and repair, such as patching, inhibitors, coatings, penetrants and structural strengthening as well as cathodic protection and other electrochemical methods. This book also gives guidance on preventative measures including concrete technology and construction considerations, coatings and penetrants, alternate reinforcement, permanent corrosion monitoring and durability planning aspects.
Asset managers, port engineers, bridge maintenance managers, building managers, heritage structure engineers, plant engineers, consulting engineers, architects, specialist contractors and construction material suppliers who have the task of resolving problems of corrosion of steel reinforced concrete elements will find this book an extremely useful resource. It will also be a valuable reference for students at postgraduate level.

For mat foundation most of time we got its thickness from punching check (two way shear) , no one care about one way shear check in mat foundation at least this is what I observed by reading tons of books! is kind of that they tell you that for mat foundation if punching is ok then the one way shear also will be ok.
My question is what about piled raft foundation, do we need to check one way shear? if yes, how we can check it ? is it ok to just take the entire width of mat for checking one way shear as ACI mentioned? or we need to check it through stress evaluation inside the piled raft? or if we checked the punching and the flexural reinforcement be reasonable for selected thickness, that is all we need.
Most of piled raft design references concentrate on interaction between piles piles, raft piles, piles soil, raft soils, and have no information about how to calculate thickness for piled raft foundation system ! so please if you know a good reference for it tell me, thanks
