Filler beam bridge deck design example

[Tabaluga]

Hi,
I am struggling to find a filler beam design example for a road bridge - if you happen to have one handy and were willing to share that would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

I'm not familiar with that term. Perhaps if you would share some detail about what the purpose of the beam is, I could guide you.

Agree with BridgeSmith, more information is needed. Are you referring to a temporary beam that supports the deck during phased construction?

Filler beam deck is essentially a reinforced concrete encased steel beam section.

The current design to Eurocode EN 1994-2:2005:

Ah...Eurocode...that's why it wasn't familiar. I don't have any designs for one of those. I've seen a few, but they're so old, I don't even think the designs are on file. Our department hasn't done one in the last 50 years.

Good presentation that I have seen recently, this is a rail bridge in Sydney, Australia.

Thanks, gusmurr.

I have seen the presentation - does anyone have a link to UIC Code 773 mentioned there?
