Bracket Connections
Brackets are projections that carry loads. The connection of a bracket to a support has to transmit both shear and […]

Trusses, offering relatively large depth, open-web construction, and members subjected primarily to axial stress, provide large carrying capacity for comparatively small
Highway-bridge decks usually are constructed of reinforced concrete. Often, this concrete is made with conventional aggregate and weighs about 150 lb
One of the most important decisions designers have to make is selection of the proper grade of steel and corrosion-protection system.
In new work, ASTM A307 bolts or high-strength bolts used in bearing-type connections should not be considered as sharing the stress
Bolted connections of cold-formed steel members are designed as bearing type connections. Bolt pretensioning is not required and installation should
Most field connections are made by bolting, either with high-strength bolts (ASTM A325 or A490) or with ordinary machine bolts (A307
Bridges should be designed so that a total movement due to temperature change of 11â„4 in per 100 ft can take
Beams are structural members subjected to lateral forces that cause bending. There are distinct relationships between the load on a
For a member subjected to flexure, the bending strength depends on the shape of the member, width/ thickness or depth/ thickness
