Abstract: Due to its complex geometry and mechanical behavior, the prestress design of the cable–pylon anchorage zone is difficult to achieve but critical. In this paper, the use of the strut-and-tie model (STM) is evaluated to ...

Abstract: This study conducted preliminary finite-element analysis (FEA) of an orthotropic steel deck (OSD) with U-ribs and V-ribs for a long-span cable-stayed steel-box girder railway bridge using the hot-spot stress method to ...

Abstract: As an innovative steel box girder, the normal stress patterns in the top and bottom plates of a cantilever steel box girder are complex. However, the influence of external and internal struts on the shear lag effect is ...

Abstract: An innovative steel–concrete joint (SCJ) was applied to long-span railway hybrid box girder cable-stayed bridges to achieve favorable force transfer and deformation performance with a running train. The fatigue performance ...
