Stresses in Steel Curved Girder Bridges
Steel curved I-girder bridge systems may be more susceptible to instability during construction than bridges constructed of straight I-girders. The primary goal of this project is to study the behavior of the steel superstructure of curved steel I-girder bridge systems during all phases of construction, and to ascertain whether the linear elastic analysis software used by Mn/DOT during the design process represents well the actual stresses in the bridge. Sixty vibrating wire strain gages were applied to a two-span, four-girder bridge, and the resulting stresses and deflections were compared to computational results for the full construction sequence of the bridge.
