FEABAS: A User-Friendly Software for Prediction of Bridge Approach Settlement
Bridge approach settlement is a major problem in highway design as well as maintenance. It creates an unsafe and uncomfortable riding surface. This report presents the details of a software that was developed at the University of Oklahoma, through a project funded jointly by the Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT) and the Federal Highway Administration (FWA). The objective of the software was to analyze the settlement characteristics of the problematic bridge approach sites in Oklahoma. To this end, a nonlinear Finite Element (FE) analysis procedure was developed for predicting the consolidation settlement of the foundation soil at a bridge approach due to the surcharge of embankment construction, as well as the settlement of the embankment itself due to the vehicular traffic loads.
