According to Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the length of the bridge was 1907 feet and its maximum span length was 458 feet. It had 8 traffic lanes and a height of 64 feet above the water. On the evening of August 1st, 2007 this steel arch deck truss bridge collapsed during rush hour. This paper will investigate the cause of this failure and provide some potential solution(s) to prevent similar failures. What Happened As reported by the New Building Material & Construction World…

2013). The structural elements of the Waddell a-truss bridge include two trusses, which each have compressive and tensile components. The beams in the middle did not carry any immediate load, other than the one attached to the actual bucket. The way the load is placed meant that bars were in tension,…

civil engineering material that still and always in ongoing research for utilising in building or construction works. The advantage of the CFSS is becoming so interesting in selecting it as a roof truss system and purlins. For having the roof truss system with stable and safe condition, the study of the truss member is carried out by using the cut-curving channel section. Before the cold-formed steel section has been curved, the process of curving is started by cutting the section in a proper…
