Abstract: |
Experience with the analysis and performance of 15 lightweight concrete footbridges is presented from the point of view of their dynamic response caused by moving people. The footbridges are formed either by a stress ribbon or by a slender deck supported by arches or suspended from pylons. The dynamic response was determined according to a procedure given in a 1998 draft of Eurocode 2: Design of Concrete Structures - Part 2: Concrete Bridges. Thirteen footbridges have been built and so far no complaints about their dynamic behaviour have been recorded. |
