Overnight closure of Kennedy Bridge slated for Friday | News

LOUISVILLE – Contractors will temporarily close Interstate 65 South on the John F. Kennedy Memorial Bridge in Louisville overnight Friday, Nov. 7, as work advances on a bridge expansion joint replacement project to maintain and preserve the important Ohio River crossing. The overnight closure is necessary to prevent any bridge movement while contract crews perform […]

A numerical analysis of inclination and rectification of ramp-bridge piers adjacent to surcharge load in soft clay area

Bridge inclination by the surcharge load and rectification by the unloading In the calculation, the inclination of the super and lower structures of the bridge under the action of the surcharge load was first analyzed to evaluate whether the pile foundation in the underground soil was damaged, and which was used to provide a reference […]
