Hello all,
I am designing an adjacent box beam bridge and am wondering what would be a good way to connect the transverse tie rods at the crown of the road, which slopes 2% in each direction. As this is a wide bridge (100' roadway) we cannot just slope the deck on top of level beams because...
I am working on a steel girder design using SIMON. I have a girder that works, however SIMON will not complete the analysis of the stiffeners and bearings. The program says starting stiffener design, then says
"Bad Utype: Abnormal program termination: Device not available."
Does anyone know...
