Abstract: The live load distribution on single and continuous curved composite I‐girder bridges is examined by use of a 3‐D space frame formulation. Influences of bottom lateral bracing is considered in the load redistribution and ...

Abstract: The results of a comprehensive study of the seismic response of curved steel box girder bridges are presented. Multiple‐span bridges with up to five spans are analyzed. The bridge is modeled using 3‐D space frame elements ...
