Hi,anybody has experience with steel through girder(bent) design? I have a Direct connetor bridge with 4 curved steel girders. And there is a steel girder go through these 4 girders and worked as an interior bent to provide support.
The load is going to be pretty heavy, we want to used bolted...
We recently got a bridge and archtect prefer to design a one-beam-bridge Which means the bridge cross-section is a big U-beam supporting deck. There are also some diaphrams inside of u shape beam.
Anybody get an idea which software could design it? Or where I could find useful information...
