The second quarter 2014 issue of Engineering Journal is now available online. Click here to view, print and share the current digital edition.
This issue of Engineering Journal is the first of two issues with a special focus on the “simple for dead load–continuous for live load” — or SDCL — design concept. The premise behind the concept is that girders erected as simple spans can be made to function under live load as continuous spans by providing continuity with a unique field connection. In addition to covering research, the journal will highlight two successful SDCL bridge projects from the engineer’s perspective.
