Wind Loads on Girder Bridges
This paper supplements the rather small fund of knowledge available for designing girder bridges to resist wind loads. The authors have made wind-tunnel studies of the effect of variation in the angles of attack, yaw, and roll. The paper includes a description of the models and the special measures necessary to circumvent blockage effects and to take into account other aerodynamic phenomena. Models of both railway bridges and highway bridges were studied, and results are compared with specifications of the American Railway Engineering Association and the American Association of State Highway Officials.
