Download or read book Evaluating Bridge Performance: Load Rating Bridges Without Plans and Experimental Displacement Influence Lines written by Jun Huang and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the best alternatives for bridges which need accurate load rating, is through field testing. Presented in this dissertation are two studies on evaluating the performance of bridges based on the results of a diagnostic load test. The first topic is focused on load rating bridges without plans using the results of a diagnostic test. The second topic is focused on utilizing measured displacements from a field test to evaluate the bridge performance.
