Download or read book Grillage Analogy in Bridge Deck Analysis written by C. S. Surana and published by Alpha Science Int'l Ltd.. This book was released on 1998 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the well established computer-aided method of grillage analogy as applied to analysis of bridge decks. The method, applicable to various types of bridge decks (such as slab bridges, T-beam bridges and box-girder bridges), can handle rigid or flexible support conditions, and right, skew or curved plan layouts.The procedure and recommendations for idealising the actual bridge decks and loadings into mathematical models are discussed. Two programs, given in ready-to-use form, along with descriptions of various subroutines, can analyse a variety of bridge decks accurately and obtain all the responses required in the design. Their uses are explained through worked-out examples. These programs, along with input-data and exhaustive output results of all the worked-out examples, are also available on a diskette and can be ordered seperately from the authors through the publisher. This will help those who do not want to type programs from the book and run into possible risk of errors.The book will be useful for the students, researchers, teachers, designers and consultants engaged in analysing, designing, vetting, tendering or constructing bridges.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridge Superstructure deals with the behaviour of different types of bridge decks under different systems of loading. Mathematical modeling and the behaviour of different types of bridge decks are clearly explained. Solid slab, voided slab and skew slab bridge decks are detailed out for analysis and design. Box girder bridges is specially discussed for better understanding of its behaviour and its design. Special points relating to creep and shrinkage effects in continuous bridge decks are explained. Bridge bearings, expansion joints and appurtenances of different types are explained with respect to their place of use and their functions. A few methods of erection of bridge decks of simply supported spans or continuous spans are presented to give a good understanding of such possibilities.
Download or read book Bridge Design written by António J. Reis and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-04-01 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive guide to bridge design Bridge Design - Concepts and Analysis provides a unique approach, combining the fundamentals of concept design and structural analysis of bridges in a single volume. The book discusses design solutions from the authors’ practical experience and provides insights into conceptual design with concrete, steel or composite bridge solutions as alternatives. Key features: Principal design concepts and analysis are dealt with in a unified approach. Execution methods and evolution of the static scheme during construction are dealt with for steel, concrete and composite bridges. Aesthetics and environmental integration of bridges are considered as an issue for concept design. Bridge analysis, including modelling and detail design aspects, is discussed for different bridge typologies and structural materials. Specific design verification aspects are discussed on the basis of present design rules in Eurocodes. The book is an invaluable guide for postgraduate students studying bridge design, bridge designers and structural engineers.

Download or read book Bridge Deck Analysis written by R. A. J. Patil and published by Scitus Academics LLC. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Bridge Deck Analysis, provides bridge designers with the knowledge to understand the behaviour of bridge decks, to be familiar with, and to understand the various numerical modelling techniques, to know which technique is most suited. Design of reinforced concrete bridges is normally done on the basis of a structural analysis. The purpose of the analysis is to find a distribution of sectional forces which fulfils equilibrium and is suitable for design. In the past structural analyses were often done with simplified models, for example two-dimensional (2D) equivalent beam or frame models. Such a model is not able to describe the distribution of forces in transversal directions. Therefore a design according to a 2D equivalent model will not be according to the true linear elastic distribution, even though the design might fulfil requirements in ultimate limit state (ULS) after sufficient plastic redistribution. When designing bridges it is today required that a structural analysis describes the actions of the structure in its entirety. In practice this means that a 3D-model has to be established. Therefore, several procedures exist and often differ between different companies, level of education and designer.

Book excerpt: The major focus of this research was to validate the concept of connecting two adjacent simple-span girders with a link slab to form a jointless bridge deck so as to eliminate the standard deck joint between the girders. Laboratory tests were conducted on two large-scale specimens to study the performance of the link slab and the girders. The test results indicated that the contribution of link slab to structural continuity is negligible since the stiffness of the link slab is much less than that of the beams with composite decks. Therefore the beams can be treated as simply supported structures without considering the link slab. Furthermore, the stresses in the link slab are controlled primarily by the predominant bending effect due to the end rotations of the beams rather than the axial load effect. A simplified method of analysis is proposed in which the end rotations of the two adjacent girders under a given loading are determined first. Then the end rotations are imposed on the ends of the link slab and the induced moment in the link slab is thus calculated. A design guideline for the link slab is also proposed and illustrated by a design example. The reinforcement for the link slab is designed to control the crack width in the link slab according to the AASHTO criterion.
