LIVE LOAD DISTRIBUTION OF PRECAST CONCRETE U-GIRDER BRIDGES

Ahmed Zakaria Hanafi Ali;

Abstract


Key Words: Loads of Bridges, Load Distribution Factors, Precast U-Girder Bridges, Finite element analysis
Summary:
The thesis discusses and investigates the live load distribution factors of precast concrete U-girder bridges. An extensive parametric study was conducted to investigate the parameters affecting the distribution factors, and the accuracy of AASHTO-LRFD equations for determining these factors. Empirical equations were derived to estimate the distribution
factors according to AASHTO-LRFD and ECP 201-2010 specifications. Their accuracy were examined on a variety of precast U-girder bridges
