Load-carrying capacity of steel railway bridges of the second half of XIX century - discussion
Journal Title: Roads and Bridges - Drogi i Mosty - Year 2014, Vol 13, Issue 3
Abstract
The load-bearing capacity of steel railway Bridges build in the 2nd half of XIX century is discussed. The reason for the discussion is the paper published in quarterly “Roads and Bridges - Drogi i Mosty No. 2 (2014). It was concluded that for verification of load carrying capacity of bridges exploited for a long time, the long term effects on the material properties should be taken into account.
