Economical Steel Plate Girder Bridges
As a service to the bridge design profession, Bethlehem Steel has conducted hundreds of studies of steel plate girder bridges using its Preliminary Bridge Girder Optimization Program. The program is unique because it optimizes plate girder designs on the basis of least cost, not least weight. An evaluation of many study results leads to a number of guidelines which are offered in this paper. Wh...
متن کاملComposite Action during Construction of Steel Trapezoidal Box Girder Bridges (0-1898-2)
In steel trapezoidal box girder bridge systems, the U-shaped steel girder is designed to act compositely with the concrete deck to form a closed box for live loading. During the construction stage, however, the behavior is not well understood. The usual practice of assuming the system to be non-composite during construction requires substantial top flange bracing to form a quasi-closed box sect...
متن کاملLessons Learned in the Design and Erection of Box Girder Bridges from the West Gate
The West Gate Bridge, intended to span the Yarra River in Australia, collapsed during its third year of construction in 1970. Investigation into the project revealed numerous issues in the bridge's design and construction. The West Gate Bridge is one of a number of box girder bridges built during the mid 2 0 th century, and was one of four to fail in a three year period. An overview of the desi...
متن کاملAnalysis of Girder Differential Deflection and Web Gap Stress for Rapid Assessment of Distortional Fatigue in Multi-Girder Steel Bridges
Distortion-induced fatigue cracking in unstiffened web gaps is common in steel bridges. Previous research by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) developed methods to predict the peak web gap stress and maximum differential deflection based upon field data and finite element analyses from two skew supported steel bridges with staggered bent-plate and cross-brace diaphragms, respe...
متن کاملAerodynamic Admittance Research on Wide-body Flat Steel Box Girder
Abstract: Aerodynamic admittance is a key parameter affecting the analysis accuracy of the bridge buffeting response. However, few articles have covered the issue of the wide-body flat box girder with much smaller depth-width ratio (such as 1/12 studied in this paper). Therefore, to explore the real buffeting force of the wide-body flat box girder, experiments of the static force coefficients a...
