Design Criteria for Theater of Operations Steel Highway Bridges. Volume II. Appendices A-I.
Abstract:
This volume details the development and justification of the design criteria, procedures, and material specifications for Theater of Operations TO temporary steel highway bridges recommended in Volume I. Appendices A through D describe the development of the static load case criteria. The brittle fracture criteria are treated in Appendix E and the fatigue criteria are developed in Appendix F. Appendix G provides the background for the fastener and connection resistance for the static load case. Appendices H and I contain the development of the lateral load distribution and shear formulas. It should be emphasized that this volume does not provide recommendations for design criteria, procedures, and material specifications it provides only their development and justification. Volume I provides the recommendations. Author
