ANALYTICAL PARAMETRIC STUDY OF A TIED-BACK SYSTEM FOR REINFORCING DISTRESSED BRIDGE ABUTMENTS. USER'S MANUAL FOR PROGRAM BART

This FORTRAN computer program performs the design and analysis of a tie-rod and drilled-in concrete anchor system that reinforces distressed sill-type concrete bridge abutments supported by piles. It calculates the minimum required dimensions of tie-rods and drilled-in concrete anchors, as well as the detailed response of the entire system including the displacements, strains, stresses, axial forces, shear forces, and bending moments of the continuum and the structural members. This is the user's manual for program BART.
