Improving the Procedure of Probabilistic Load Testing Design of Typical Bridges Based on Structural Response Similarities

This paper concerns load testing of typical bridge structures performed prior to operation. In-situ tests of a twospan post-tensioned bridge loaded with three vehicles of 38-ton mass each formed the input of this study. On the basis of the results of these measurements an advanced FEM model of the s...
