Abstract: In the design of highway bridges, it is important to consider the thermal stresses induced by the nonlinear temperature distribution in the bridge deck irrespective of their spans. To cope with this, design temperature ...

Abstract: The incorporation of corrugated steel webs in prestressed concrete bridges has improved their structural performance. However, the low axial stiffness of the shear deformable corrugated steel webs affects the shear ...

Abstract: The incorporation of corrugated steel webs in composite box-girder bridges has greatly improved their structural performance. However, the low axial stiffness of the shear-deformable corrugated steel webs also affects the ...
