MODELING OF MASONRY ARCH BRIDGES- METHOD OF DETERMINATION OF LOAD CAPACITY OF MASONRY ARCH BRIDGES


Abstract eng:
In our country and in the other parts of the world exists number of masonry bridges. Their limit loading capacity is not known today. It is very important to make simulations of these, verifying model of mortar bridges is necessary before. The article deals with nonlinear material model mortar which is used in software package ADINA and compares its solutions against results of examinations that has done in Czech Technical University of Civil Engineering. The article also deals with modeling of masonry arch bridges. Describes determination of load capacity of masonry bridges. Describes new method based on nonlinear computations models and compares results against actual methods used in practice. The article deals with load capacity of masonry bridges. It describes new method based on nonlinear computation of models and compares results against actual methods used in practice.
