hi all,
I am a entry level bridge designer in Phoenix. I am having a difficulty on understanding the live load.
Especially i do not understand what is difference between lane load and truck load.
which case i should use lane load and which case i should use truck load to calculate critical live load moment and shear?
and how to deal with distributed load and concentrated load?
i am very confused... please help me. which case i should use distributed load and which case i should use concentrated load?
i did not take any class about truck live load. i only know the live load on building.
please help me. i am having a bad dream everynight.
Thank you so much.
happy new year.
