ANALYSIS OF SLAB-STRINGER-DIAPARAGM SYSTEMS

EXACT SOLUTIONS ARE FOUND FOR RATIONALLY BASED MATHEMATICAL MODELS FOR RECTANGULAR SLAB-STRINGER-DIAPHRAGM BRIDGE FLOOR SYSTEMS WITH SIMPLE END SUPPORTS AND FLEXIBLE SIDE SUPPORTS. THE FORMULAS ARE VALID FOR GENERAL LOADINGS AND ARE IN THE FORM OF DOUBLE FOURIER SERIES THAT ARE INFINITE WITH RESPECT TO THE DISCRETE VARIABLE DENOTING THE STRINGER. THREE TYPES OF SOLUTIONS FOR SLAB-STRINGER-DIAPHRAGM BRIDGE FLOOR SYSTEM MODELS ARE GIVEN: (1) THE NON-COMPOSITE FLEXURAL ANALYSIS; (2) THE COMPOSITE MEMBRANE ANALYSIS; AND (3) THE COMPOSITE MEMBRANE-FLEXURAL ANALYSIS. IT IS ASSUMED THAT ALL INTERIOR STRINGERS ARE INDENTICAL, PRISMATIC, AND EVENLY SPACED. /AUTHOR/
