STRUCTURAL BEHAVIOR OF A CURVED TWO SPAN REINFORCED CONCRETE BOX GIRDER BRIDGE MODEL. VOLUME II. REDUCTION, ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS

This is the second of a three volume sequence as follows: Vol. 1 - Design, Construction, Instrumentation and Loading; Vol. 2 - Reduction, Analysis and Interpretation of Results; and Vol. 3 - Detailed Tables of Experimental and Analytical Results. In the present volume of a detailed presentation of the reduction, analysis and interpretaion of the experimental and theoretical results obtained in testing a large scale, horizontally curved, two span, four cell, reinforced concrete box girder bridge model is given. The various computer programs used in obtaining theoretical results are described and compared. The methods and computer programs used for reduction of experimental data are also presented.
