Abstract

Standard non destructive static and dynamic testing of bridges after their reconstruction serves as indicators regarding the capacity of the structure and their durability. Several steel concrete composite girder bridges were investigated and compared. Measurement from the static tests were used to make some correlation between the stiffness of the structure and dynamic properties. From the investigations it was clear that different truck weight has a direct influence of the dynamic characteristics, requiring a standardization of testing vehicle. Temperature influence was more than indicative.
