This study aims to evaluate the economy of a steel bridge deck pavement scheme (SBDPS) using a comprehensive life-cycle cost (LCC) analysis approach. The SBDPS are divided into the “epoxy asphalt concrete system”(EA system) and“ Gussasphalt concrete system”(GA system) according to the difference in the material in the lower layer of the SBDPS. A targeted LCC checklist, including manager cost and user cost was proposed, and a Markov-based approach was applied to establish a life-cycle performance model with clear probability characteristics for SBDPS. Representative traffic conditions were designed using a uniform design method, and the LCC of SBDPS under representative traffic conditions and different credibility (construction quality as a random factor) was compared. The reliability of the LCC analysis approach was verified based on the uncertainty analysis method. Based on an expert-scoring approach, a user cost weight was obtained to ensure it is considered reasonably in the LCC analysis. Compared with the cumulative traffic volume, the cumulative equivalent single axle loads (CESAL) have a closer relationship with the LCC. The GA system has better LCC when the CESAL is less, while the EA system is just the opposite. The breaking point of CESAL for the LCC of the EA system and the GA system is 15 million times. The LCC analysis of SBDPS should consider the influence of random factors such as construction quality. The comprehensive LCC analysis approach in this paper can provide suggestions for bridge-management departments to make a reasonable selection on SBDPS.

Fatigue cracks are main damages to steel bridge deck pavement with thermosetting epoxy asphalt. By combining a high-toughness resin material with fiber woven fabrics, this study formed an ultrathin overlay of fiber-reinforced high-toughness resin to improve cracking resistance of pavement. Through theoretical measurement and bending test, this research studied change laws of bending and tensile properties of epoxy asphalt concrete after fiber reinforcement and analyzed bending strength and the maximum failure strain of beams at different temperatures. Moreover, the reinforcing effects of different fibers were discussed. It is found that bending strength, maximum failure strain, and stiffness modulus of the beams with epoxy asphalt are improved after fiber reinforcement. With the decrease of temperature, after fiber reinforcement, the mode of bending failure of the epoxy asphalt mixture (EAM) changes from brittle fracture into shear failure, accompanied with significant yield phenomenon. Furthermore, organic carbon fiber is sensitive to influences of temperature, while glass fiber is least sensitive to temperature.

This epoxy asphalt used by the U.S., Japan Epoxy Asphalt two steel bridge deck pavement materials at different thickness analysis of pavement deformation force. Pavement derived the maximum tensile stress, shear stress and elastic modulus, pavement thickness of mathematical models. The results showed that: Pavement maximum tensile stress, shear stress, pavement elastic modulus with available four times a polynomial equation fitted, pavement surface transverse maximum stress increases as the pavement thickness decreases, horizontal maximum shear stress between layers does not increase with the pavement thickness decreases, but the thickness of the pavement at 40-50mm have a peak, then gradually increases with the thickness decreases.
