Numerical Investigation of Crack Propagation in Slab-Bridge System Main Beams Subjected to Moving Loads, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Jahanshahi, Mohsen (Supervisor) ; Khoei, Amir Reza (Supervisor)
Abstract
Bridges play a vital role in road-related transport industries. Significant changes to contemporary bridge design specifications have also been mainly related to strength issues. The transitions from allowable stress design to load factor design, and more recently to load and resistance factor design (LRFD), reflect this line of thinking. It is important to note that in the early 1970s, bridge engineers developed criteria for steel bridge details to protect against fatigue and fracture failure. These were indeed service life design provisions. By industry growth and extensive need for goods transportation, there is a need for the construction of new bridges and renewal of older bridges plus...
