Topic 1:
Assessing Shear Cracks in Prestressed Concrete Beams
Abstract
This presentation discusses a data-driven tool developed to assist bridge owners in evaluating prestressed concrete beams that exhibit shear cracks. The machine learning-based method interprets crack widths in terms of load and stiffness corresponding to cracking. The presentation introduces the machine learning algorithms and focuses on testing of a cracked prestressed concrete beam.
