Hi everybody
I am looking for good refference to yield line method in calculating Ultimate load capacity of bridges.
Can you help?
Did you now about any software?
Thaks.

Thanks All,
About bearings with different dimensions:
If k=b/a then
ac=sqrt4(12Ic/k) and bc=ac*k
Other question:
Has anybody tryed to model bearing with solid elements. Mean al steel and elastomeric layers with their properties?
If yes any comments will be efficient.
Thanks
Hi friends
I am tying modeling an elastomeric bearing for horizontal forces simulation.
I am usin the following formulae:
a-Dimension of bearing in direction paralel to beam axis
b-Dimension of bearing in direction Normal to beam axis
h- total hight of bearing
hc-total height of elastomer...
