The progress of the composite girder is traced primarily through the evolution of the shear connector. The hybrid girder originated with prestressed girders and developed into the autostressed hybrid girder. The modern hybrid girder is little different from a normal girder; however, its presence represents a true advancement in furthering the economy of steel bridge construction. The orthotropic girder bridge was brought about by the industry's need to develop bridges with maximum economy of material. This type of structure is perhaps the most recent totally new idea in bridge construction. The roadway quality is of great importance to this bridge and the wear surface has advanced considerably. /ASCE/","PeriodicalId":271903,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Construction Division","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1975-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132668535","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thermal stress in humans is affected by the balance between metabolism and evaporation, convection, and radiation.

Correlations between all thermal stress variables and labor productivity have not been established for construction craftsmen. However, relationships between mason productivity and temperature and humidity have been established. Meteorological data from 73 United States weather stations have been used to determine geographical variations in mason productivity as affected by these climatic variables.","PeriodicalId":271903,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Construction Division","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1974-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129653947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
