Structural Behavior of the Homewood Bridge
A complete analysis of the twelfth span of the southbound off ramp of the Homewood Interchange in Birmingham, Alabama was made which included comparisons between experimental measurements and theoretical predictions of primary bending stress, lateral flange bending stress, deflection, and neutral axis position. Comparisons were made for static live loads. Calculations were made to determine the significance of composite action in both longitudinal and lateral directions. Effects of longitudinal and lateral placement of the loads were determined. Effects of guard rails on stresses and deflections of exterior girders were determined.
