Stringer or Girder Spacing
One of the major factors affecting the economy of highway bridges with a concrete deck on stringers or longitudinal girders is
Stress-Strain Relationships
Structural steels display linearly elastic properties when the load does not exceed a certain limit. Steels also are isotropic; i.e., the
Stress-Strain Diagrams
Suppose that a homogeneous steel bar with a constant cross-sectional area A is subjected to tension under axial load P (Fig.
