With the development of accelerated bridge construction (ABC), the seismic performance of typical ABC column-footing connections has been evaluated in high earthquake-prone states, like Utah, California, Nevada, and Idaho. But to date, the current literature has yet to fully examine the impact behavior...

Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials have been studied and applied to reinforced concrete (RC) structures for strengthening or seismic retrofit for many years. This research is related to using FRP composites in new bridge structures. Capacity degradation in RC components of existing bridges...
