INVESTIGATION OF BULKHEAD BRIDGE ABUTMENTS. USER'S MANUAL FOR PROGRAM BULK

This FORTRAN computer program performs the design and analysis of cantilever or anchored bulkhead bridge abutments. It calculates the minimum required dimensions of bulkhead piling, ties, and deadmen, 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.
