Prepared by the Highway Innovative Technology Evaluation Center (HITEC), a CERF Innovation Center. This report represents the second component of the HITEC technical evaluation of the J. Muller International Channel Bridge, a precast segmental overpass bridge system intended for use in either bridge replacement projects or new construction. This report describes a full-scale demonstration of the technology. The evaluation was conducted based on the technical evaluation plan developed in June 1995 and follows the technical analyses and evaluation of design attributes and performance history, with emphasis on the unique aspects of this technology.

Prepared by the Civil Engineering Innovative Technology Evaluation Center, a CERF innovation center serving the engineering and construction industries. This report presents a CEITEC evaluation of the Trevipark automated parking system, which was developed, designed, and supplied by TREVI S.p.A., of Cesena, Italy. The evaluation is designed to determine the benefits and limitations of Trevipark for use as a technically viable automated vehicle parking system. The evaluation focused on data collection, site inspections, and analyses. The Trevipark system consists of a cylindrical enclosure with a central elevator system to park and store vehicles in a radial pattern. This proprietary system is intended to provide safe and secure parking for lower cost, smaller site and space requirements, less retrieval time, and other advantages.

Prepared by CEITEC, a CERF innovation center serving the engineering and construction industries. This report describes an evaluation of Sewer Scanner and Evaluation Technology (SSET) designed to determine the basic capabilities and limitations of SSET for use as a technicallly viable technology for inspecting sewer pipes. The evaluation focused on the performance and in-service demonstration of SSET. The technology involves digital scanning to obtain a flat, "unfolded" image of the pipeline's interior. This evaluation includes field demonstrations performed at 13 municipal public works agencies throughout North America. Subsequent to this evaluation, SSET was modified to include a fisheye lens camera and fiber optic gyroscope, which replaced the rotating mechanical scanner and mechanical gyroscope. The evaluation confirmed the operability of SSET and its viability in data presentation. A degree of enhancement was recognized with additional features, most notably the ability to produce a digital report of the sewer pipe, to identify vertical deflection in pipes, and to deliver easily comprehensible and manageable results. The evaluation also revealed that SSET cannot reproduce all the features typically available from closed-circuit television (CCTV) inspection. Such features include the ability to clearly see corrosion, infiltration rates, and ovality. The limitations in applicability were determined and an economic comparison of SSET and CCTV is provided.
