Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering

The Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering presents information regarding the engineering aspects of dredging, floods, ice, pollution, sediment transport, and tidal wave action that affect shorelines, waterways, and harbors. The development and operation of ports, harbors, and offshore facilities, as well as deep ocean engineering and shore protection and enhancement, are also covered. Other topics include the regulation and stabilization of rivers and the economics of beach nourishment.

Experimental Setup for a Large-Scale Bridge Superstructure Model Subjected to Waves

J. Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Eng. Volume 137, Issue 1, pp. 3-11 (January/February 2011)

Issue Date: January/February 2011

To gain a better understanding of the wave forces that led to the failure of numerous causeway-type coastal highway bridges along the U.S. Gulf coast, a series of experiments was conducted on a realistic, 1:5 scale reinforced concrete bridge superstructure. The experimental setup is unique compared to other wave-in-deck studies in that the stiffness of the horizontal support system can be varied to represent different dynamic properties of the bridge system.
