摘要: |
Load tests on segmental bridges are uncommon in the literature given their relatively short history and comparatively smaller presence in the national bridge inventory. This paper presents results from two segmental concrete bridge field tests and compares them with common simplified longitudinal and transverse analysis procedures. These single-cell structures, built with balanced cantilever construction, represent two significantly different segmental concrete bridges. Designers frequently use a beamline model for longitudinal analysis. When compared with the load test results, this simple method produces conservative predictions of longitudinal behavior within 20%, which is also reflected in the literature. Conversely, little information exists in the literature on transverse bending analysis. When analyzing the localized transverse bending from concentrated wheel loads, designers commonly use an equivalent frame model. Most frequently, designers use influence surfaces to estimate the scaled loads to apply to these two-dimensional frame models. This simplified approach is shown to be conservative overall but cannot always predict bending sense and frequently overpredicts demand in excess of 100%. |
