    Interesting Integral abutment behaviour

    Is it possible that these girders are straight by night? When the sun doesn't shine them directly. And the backfilling behind the abutment might also press the girders. Look weird.

    post stressed timber deck

    Hi! I've just read this document about timber bridges in Norway: http://www.balticroads.org/conference25/files/kleppe-o2.pdf Could anyone suggest me how/where I can find any manuals about stressed timber deck's design? I'd like to know more about this topic I would appreciate any help

    LRFD, weak axis bending and Joba

    My GUESS is: the maximum of the lateral bending moment of the girders is supposed to be in the middle of the span. That's why you don't have to ignore the deck slab from the capacity of the composite section. (because the concrete deck is depressed here and not cracked = it does stiffen the...

    Design-span for moment calculations (timber-deck on bridge)

    Hi I dont know AASHTO and never designed timber flooring but.. I wouldn't put the planks directly on the compressed flange. I would design a smaller longitudinal "slat" upon the web in order to centralize reaction forces of planks, avoiding dangerous further deformations of the girder's top...

    Long span prestressed girder stability and lifting

    Hi Could you tell me more about "Laszlo method" (or some usable links)? I've never heard about it, or its name might be different here. Thank you very much in advance.
