A Numerical Investigation of Longitudinal Track–Bridge Interaction in Simply Supported Precast Concrete Girder Railway Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In railway tracks, additional stresses occur in rails due to interaction between the rail and the bridge superstructure, which is a phenomenon known as track–bridge interaction (TBI). The additional rail stresses (ARSs) ...
Behavior of Girder-Floor Beam Connections in Prestressed Concrete Pedestrian Bridges Subjected to Lateral Impact Loads
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Each year a large number of concrete bridges are subjected to impact by overheight vehicles or vehicles carrying overheight objects. Most bridge owners in the United States are concerned with the increasing trend of bridges ...
Experimental Determination of Resistance Characteristics of Support Details Used in Prestressed Concrete Bridge Girders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Static load tests were performed on support details used at the ends of prestressed concrete pedestrian bridge girders to determine the resistance characteristics of girder supports in the direction perpendicular to the ...
