摘要
A full-scale specimen replicating the main elements of a three span limber trestle bridge chord was constructed in the laboratory. Ramp load testing was conducted to examine the service load behavior of the specimens. Selected results presented and compared with calculated results of a rigorous finite element model and a simplified sub-structure model. Excellent agreement was obtained between the numerical model and the test data at instrumented locations.
