(ASCE, 2012-08)Offshore piles are subjected to complex loading regimes, which include both rapidly applied static and cyclic loads. This note describes an experimental investigation conducted in order to assess the factors influencing ...
-
(Taylor & Francis, 2001-10-05)This report gives results of some new studies performed to validate the European road traffic load model proposed by the Eurocode EC1. Weight in motion has developed greatly in the last ten years and confidence in the ...

(European Communities, 1998)WIM has developed greatly in the last ten years and confidence in the accuracy of recorded data has increased significantly. Traffic data recently obtained from a number of representative European sites are used to ...

Characteristic traffic load effects from a mixture of loading events on short to medium span bridges (Elsevier, 2008-09)In recent years highway bridge load assessment has been recognised as an area through which savings can be made by avoiding unnecessary bridge refurbishment and replacement. Load effects in bridges result from single truck ...
-
(NRC Research Press / Presses scientifiques du CNRC, 2009-01)Critical static bridge loading scenarios are often expressed in terms of the number of vehicles that are present on the bridge at the time of occurrence of maximum lifetime load effect. For example, 1-truck, 2-truck, 3-truck ...

The use of predictive likelihood to estimate the distribution of extreme bridge traffic load effect (Elsevier, 2010-03)To assess the safety of an existing bridge, the loads to which it may be subject in its lifetime are required. Statistical analysis is used to extrapolate a sample of load effect values from the simulation period to the ...

(Elsevier, 2008-09)The development of accurate codes for the design of bridges and the evaluation of existing structures requires adequate assessment of heavy traffic loading and also the dynamic interaction that may occur as this traffic ...
-
(Elsevier, 2009-07)When formulating an approach to assess bridge traffic loading with allowance for Vehicle-Bridge Interaction (VBI), a trade-off is necessary between the limited accuracy and computational demands of numerical models and the ...
-
(Taylor & Francis, 2011-11-28)The determination of characteristic bridge load effect is a complex problem. Usually, statistical extrapolation of simulated static load effects is used to derive a lifetime characteristic static load effect. However, ...

(American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE), 2010-03)To predict characteristic extreme traffic load effects, simulations are sometimes performed of bridge loading events. To generalize the truck weight data, statistical distributions are fitted to histograms of weight ...
