ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURALLY ORTHOTROPIC BRIDGE DECK SYSTEMS WITH STIFFENED OUTER EDGES

The author uses dimensionless coefficients to calculate internal forces in bridge deck systems for any case of external vertical loading. Formulae are derived, which represent edge rotations caused by external loads and the effects of transverse edge moments. /TRRL/
