New bridge design offers high earthquake resistance at lower cost
A new study focuses on the implementation of new bridge designs that could provide earthquake resistance and highly reduce the cost of fixing a bridge after a failure.
How climate change is affecting the safety of bridges
A new study, recently published in the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Journal of Bridge Engineering, evaluates the impact of climate change on the safety of bridge constructions.
New research on more efficient bridges
A new study reveals the high potential of reducing the materials used in suspension bridge construction, also mitigating its carbon emissions.
New insights on metal fatigue process
Scientists from Johns Hopkins University have found a new method to detect cracks in metals before they propagate and lead to failure.
