Book Description







Bridge Deck Design and Loading Studies, 1962


Book Description

Paper 1: A correlation is presented of forced vibration theory with dynamic impact tests for three continuous highway bridges and a simple span highway bridge. Paper 2: Results are presented of tests on welded plate girders with 100,000-psi yield point constructional alloy steel flanges and ASTM A36 carbon steel web. 5 tests were made on two specimens by subjecting them to moment and shear loading. Paper 3: Results are presented of a series of full-scale tests performed to evaluate design procedures, determine ultimate strengths, and answer other design questions concerning prestressed concrete I-beams. Paper 4: A summary is presented of research conducted on the lateral distribution of load in multibeam bridges. Paper 5: This paper describes the design, erection, and various field tests of the aboshi bridge in Japan.
