Dynamic measurements on experimental helicopter platform and on moat street flyover, coventry

Mainstone, R.J. / Menzies, J.B. / Weeks, G.A.

Experimental helicopter platform was constructed to obtain measurements of dynamic amplifications of rapidly applied loads of heavy landings; it consisted essentially of reinforced concrete slab on number of adjustable supports; flyover is new structure with composite steel and concrete deck on which measurements of response to heavy vehicle loads were made in parallel with laboratory tests on simpler composite beams; instrumentation of two structures included resistance strain gages and load cells, inductance accelerometers and potentiometric transducers all coupled to multi-channel galvanometer trace recorders.
