Abstrakt:

Truck presence on bridges is random. Trucks may centrically or eccentrically appear on a bridge span in one or more lanes, which will cause extra load effects on girder components and eventually influence structural performance. Especially when trucks are heavily loaded, their eccentric passage is possible to induce damage in components, and, thus, the prescribed load- delivery path will be changed among components within the system. Therefore, component- and system-level structural performance of bridges subjected to aggressive vehicular overloads need to be thoroughly addressed. In this study, a WIM-based 5-axle overloaded truck model is chosen, and it is gradually applied to the finite element models of two girder bridges with different eccentric distance, considering two loading scenarios of single truck and multiple trucks. In detail, trucks are transversely loaded with an incremental eccentric distance, to investigate the impacts of eccentric loadings on structural performance, including failure sequences of components, load distribution factors among components, as well as system redundancy, as structures entering nonlinear stage. Finally, the reliability indices of the two bridges under uneven overloads are assessed at the component level and system level, respectively. The results of this study were beneficial to structural evaluation bridges subjected to overloads to ensure their serviceability and integrity.
