Abstract: This paper presents a comparison of three methods used to load rate the Powder Mill Bridge based on the load and resistance factor rating (LRFR) approach. This is a typical three-span continuous bridge with steel girders ...

Abstract: The results of experiments on a small scale steel frame model are presented to support the “displacement equation error function,”“displacement output error function,” and “strain output error function” methods of structural ...
