THE COMPARISON OF THE NEW CTU METHOD FOR THE MASONRY BRIDGE LOAD CAPABILITY DETERMINATION AGAINST ACTUAL METHODS USED IN PRACTICE


Abstract eng:
The article deals with the comparison of the new method for the masonry bridge load capability determination against the actual methods used in practice. Since the methods, which are used in practice are very conservative, the CTU method is based on the conservatism parameter searching, where as the general parameter was established the depth of cracks in arch barrel. The comparison was carried out among the CTU method(CR), MEXE method(UK) and CSN 73 6220(CR).
