Evaluation of Design Guidelines for the Serviceability Assessment of Aluminum Pedestrian Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Serviceability issues related to lightweight pedestrian bridges have attracted a great deal of attention in the literature since the London Millennium Bridge incident, which involved large amplitude motions during its ...
Evaluation of Design Provisions for Pedestrian Bridges Using a Structural Reliability Framework
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The design of pedestrian bridges (PBs) is typically governed by the serviceability limit state under human-induced excitation. A comprehensive evaluation of the reliability level achieved in designing for this limit state ...
Calibrating Pedestrian-Bridge Standards for Vibration Serviceability
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Ensuring serviceability is central to the design of pedestrian bridges (PBs); hence, their design is often governed by the serviceability limit state (SLS) under pedestrian loads. A reliability-based evaluation of various ...
Performance of Pedestrian-Load Models through Experimental Studies on Lightweight Aluminum Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Aluminum structures provide a high strength-to-weight ratio, are corrosion resistant, and are esthetically pleasing. Hence, their use in bridge construction has recently begun to increase, especially for pedestrian bridges. ...
