Abstract

Bridges are critical for transportation networks. Temporary closures due to poor maintenance may trigger adverse cascading events, affecting economic and societal well-being. Two main factors play a key role in bridge health conditions: ageing and wear-and-tear due to the increasing traffic. This paper proposes a comprehensive framework to quantify the combined phenomena in a holistic approach. The reliability assessment of an existing reinforced concrete bridge subjected to increasing traffic demand and spatially-variable pitting corrosion is investigated. Empirical data are used to develop probabilistic models for cracking initiation, pitting factor, severe cracking, and cover spalling.
