ST7-1.40.60.6 Bridge Moving Load Analysis with Creep and Shrinkage
This Webnote outlines how to consider creep and shrinkage effects as initial conditions for a moving load analysis. A pair of M1 Abrams tanks are driven over a bridge which has concrete members which have cured for about 11 years (4000 days).
This analysis follows on from ST7-1.40.60.4 Cast Concrete Bridge Deck Creep and Shrinkage. Note that the complex initial conditions presented here are not necessary for general moving load analysis. One use of the moving load module is to model an overloaded...
