  1. 6. Expansion Joints in timber bridges : Mechanical behavior under external loading

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Johan Gustafsson; Jakob Myhrberg; [2021]
    Keywords : Expansion joint; FE-modeling; Timber bridges; Steel-to-wood connections; European Technical Approval Guidelines;

    Abstract : To design a bridge, different typologies of construction materials can be used. All materials have in common that deformations occur due to different events, such as externalloading, temperature- and moisture variations. To allow these kinds of deformations,Expansion Joints (EJs) are used in the structure. READ MORE

  3. 7. A pre-study of the static behaviour of a single diagonal timber arch bridge

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Lovisa Öhgren; Malin Åström; [2020]
    Keywords : timber; single diagonal arch bridge; arch bridge; buckling; RFEM; deformation; ultimate limit state; serviceability limit state;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to study and gain more insight about the static behaviour of the three hinged single diagonal timber arch bridge in different situations. The bridge was tested for static analyses for both Ultimate Limit State and Serviceability Limit State, to investigate its behaviour and if it is possible to be built at the selected location.
