Abstract:Purpose. To confirm the result of bridge span classification by using the computer modelling for truss span with upper-level traffic and polygonal lover belt and to determine minimal sufficient complexity of computational model that provides a possibility of adequate numerical calculation of given structure. Methodology. The result confirmation was executed by the comparison of stresses, that were yielded as a result of truss’ model loading with loads of predetermined class, with allowed stresses that were ado… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
