Calculation of dynamic impact loads for railway bridges using a direct integration method

Last updated on 12 September 2014 2:01

This paper introduces railway bridge assessment in the UK and the concept of dynamic impact loads. The dynamic impact loads demonstrated in the codes of practice in several other countries have been reviewed and have been found to be significantly different in the different codes. A technique for calculating dynamic...
