Girder bridge durability analysis based on dynamic and static indicators

Želimir Šimunić, Jure Radić, Ivana Mekjavić, Božidar Pavlović

Abstract

Authors present bearing capacity and usability of existing bridges of up to 50 m in span, and analyze their behavior under traffic load. Experimental and theoretical values of analyzed bridges of different cross sections and support systems, are compared. Advantages are analyzed and optimum systems with respect to durability are determined, and their behavior under seismic action is estimated. Guidelines for future improvements are given.
