This paper presents results of an investigation on
the effects of different parameters on the
structural behavior of a skewed integral bridge.
Flow velocities affected the scour depths at the
piles, and subsequently, affected the structural
behavior of the bridge’s substructure. Different
loading locations had varying influences on the
scour depth, as well as the structural behavior of
the integral bridge. Laboratory tests on a scaled
down hydraulic model were undertaken to simulate the
structural behavior of the scoured integral bridge.
The scale of the model was chosen to simulate the
actual bridge dimensions, material properties, and
loading. Three different velocities were accounted
for, based on the actual flow velocities of the
river under the bridge, and were scaled according to
the model size. Two different truck locations were
adopted. The main data acquired from the experiment
were the displacements and strains at specific
locations on the deck slab and piles. Specifically,
the results of this investigation can be utilized to
identify and provide accurate design parameters for
the design of a skewed integral bridge. Furthermore,
results can subsequently be applied in the design of
a better scour protection system. |
