On the effects of modified lane configuration due to construction works on bridge loading
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2022 Construction works are frequently recurring events within highway networks, temporarily altering the characteristics of the traffic flow and hence of the bridge loading process. Consequently, highway bridge superstructures usually carrying unidirectional

The Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2011 The usage of steel fibre reinforced concrete in monolithic joins is well known as a good alternative of additional reinforcement because of chaotic distribution of steel fibres in complex stress ant strain state. Unfortunately, the analysis of well known
