Analytical Method for Overturning Limit Analysis of Single-Column Pier Bridges
The overturning limits of single-column pier bridges subject to overloading can be predicted using various approaches ranging in complexity from close-form formulas to detailed finite-element simulations. A simple analytical method—dubbed here analytical overturning limit analysis (AOLA)—is proposed to predict the overturning loads for single-column pier bridges. AOLA is an iterative method that determines the minimum wheel loads (position and pattern) at which an overturning state is reached. It incorporates the effects of self-weight of the bridge and the sizes and intervals of its bearings. Data collected from two collapsed bridges in China and detailed finite-element simulations of those two events are used for validating and verifying the method.
