The streamline flat steel box girder is broadly used in long span cablesupported bridges all over the world. As one of the most important part of the bridges, its stress level and distribution under various dynamic loads are especially concerned. However, it is difficult to obtain the accurate stress of the steel box girder by common finite element (FE) calculation. The Runyang Suspension Bridg...

Based on an actual corrugated steel plate arch bridge, considering soil-structure interaction, by using the finite element program of ANSYS, a 2-D finite element model was set up to analyze the soil pressure and structural deformation under different load conditions in detail. Since this type of structure relies on the soil-structure interaction to share the load, as the structural parameters h...

Microalloyed S355N steel plates are extensively used in bridge and high-rise building structures. One of the factors affecting the mechanical properties is the size and morphology of inclusions. In this research, microalloyed S355N steel plates with different sizes of inclusions were examined. One contained long manganese sulfide inclusions (LI material) and the other had short ones (SI materia...

This article presents the results of testing strength structural steel taken from a railway bridge. It was built within borders today’s Poland during late 19th century and in use for over 100 years, until early 21st century. The main mechanical parameters bridge steel, such as its static impact were determined. analysis fracture surfaces with aim identification material’s macrostructure are als...
