How do engineers determine whether a bridge is safe after a major impact? 👷🚧

Missouri S&T's Dr. Mohamed ElGawady recently explained to ABC 33/40 why evaluating damage to the County Road 87 bridge over I-65 in Alabama involves much more than patching concrete. Hidden structural damage can require extensive analysis before repairs begin.

Concrete crash barriers recently completed a 350-mile journey from Manhattan, Kansas, to Missouri S&T in Rolla, where they are undergoing full-scale crash testing using the university's impact simulator.

In collaboration with Dr. Hayder A. Rasheed at Kansas State University, Dr. Mohamed ElGawady and his research team are evaluating practical retrofit solutions aimed at improving the safety and performance of existing substandard roadway barriers.
