Research Impact
We will deliver a spreadsheet containing the ranking of Caltrans corridors and bridges. Once the vulnerability of bridges is updated, Caltrans can use the spreadsheet to update the rankings of corridors and bridges. We will also deliver a PEER report and several conference and journal papers describing the research accomplishments made in this project.
