Study of Composite Bridge Stringers, Phase II
An investigation was designed to study the behavior of composite bridge beams and to check the validity of predicting this behavior using a rational numerical analysis which has been programmed in the FORTRAN II language. Eight composite beams with widely variant properties were tested along with seventeen companion pushout specimens. Variables included: (a) steel strength, (b) size, type, and number of shear connectors, (c) concrete strength, and (d) type of concrete (normal and lightweight). Test beams were gaged to measure deflection, slip, and strain at various locations. The beams were loaded (with two-point concentrated loads) in small increments up to approximately working load, unloaded, and then reloaded to failure. The experimental data were evaluated, and compared with the theoretical behavior predicted from the computer analysis. A discussion of this analysis and a printout of the program are appended.
