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.

Download or read book The Semi grillage Method in Bridge Deck Analysis written by and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper outlines the semi-grillage method of analysis and applies it to slab and pseudo-slab bridge decks. Such an analysis is usually necessary if an economical and efficient design is to be achieved. The method makes use of harmonic analysis and the semi-continuum idealization of Hendry and Jaeger which was later extended by Jaeger and Bakht to include torsion. There are important differences, however. A flexibility formulation has been used which allows torsion, edge stiffening, slab membrane action, sideways deflection of longitudinal beams, and Poisson's ratio to be taken into account. Loads are applied to the supporting members using a simple local statistical distribution as in the grillage analogy method; hence the name give to the method. For the range of bridges to which it is applicable, the proposed method is superior to grillage analysis and requires less work than the finite-strip method. The method can be easily programmed and is ideally suited to a micro-computer. Two examples of plates are presented to illustrate the accuracy, versatility, and ease of use of the method.

Download or read book Advances in Concrete Slab Technology written by Ravindra K. Dhir OBE and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-05-18 with total page 804 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in Concrete Slab Technology documents the proceedings of the International Conference on Concrete Slabs held at Dundee University on April 3-6, 1979. This book discusses the influence of steel fiber-reinforcement on the shear strength of slab-column connections; sulfur-treated concrete slabs; yield line analysis of orthotropicaly reinforced exterior panels of flat slab floors; and behavior of flat slab/edge column joints. The design of multiple panel flat slab structures; structural behavior of floor slabs in shear wall buildings; shrinkage and cracking of concrete at early ages; and slab construction for HAB system modules are also elaborated. This text likewise covers the direct finishing of concrete slabs using the early age power grinding technique; application of vacuum dewatering to in-situ slab production; retexturing of concrete slabs; and fatigue resistance of composite precast and in situ concrete floors. This publication is a good reference for students and individuals concerned with the practices and research relating to slab technology.

Download or read book Bridge Superstructure written by N. Rajagopalan and published by Alpha Science Int'l Ltd.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 284 pages. 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 Effectiveness of Grid Analogy for Bridge Deck Analysis written by Tang Chi Cheong and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 898 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridge decks have traditionally been designed using a simplified model known as the Grillage Analogy Method. Grillage Analogy Method shows how complex structures can be analyzed with physical reasoning and relatively simple computer models, and without complicated mathematics. In recent years the computer methods of grillage has become very popular and accessible as microcomputers and software have developed rapidly. 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 modeling techniques and to know which technique is best suited to each bridge type. This study focuses on the analysis of the bridge deck using Grillage Analogy Method and Finite Element Method, identifying the effectiveness of Grillage Analogy Method for bridge deck analysis. Tasks being addressed by this case study are the analysis for various types of bridge deck structures which included right angle solid slab deck, skew angle solid slab deck, right angle T-beam bridge deck with 2 end diaphragms, right angle T 8beam bridge deck with 5 diaphragms, skew angle T -beam bridge deck with 2 end diaphragms, curved solid slab deck, single box girder and voided slab deck. The structural details for each bridge deck are further illustrated in each chapter. This study provided information structures that show the percentage differences of the Grillage Analogy Method compared to Finite Element Method in bridge deck analysis using LUSAS Finite Element Software.
