| Abstrait: |
This paper describes how Finite Element (FE) modelling techniques can assist in the assessment (rating) and upgrading of steel bridges of various types. Global and local modelling options are considered with reference to several projects, in particular the West Gate Bridge in Melbourne, Australia. The use of different analysis assumptions, element types, eigenvalue and nonlinear analysis functions to achieve greater load rating capacity is outlined, identifying examples of good practise and drawing on international codes and literature for recommendations. |
