An Optimization-Based Case Study of Aluminum Pedestrian Bridge Decks
In Sweden, steel bridges are the most common solution regarding prefabricated short-span (15–35 m) pedestrian bridges. The most common bridge type for this application is a carbon steel truss bridge with an orthotropic deck consisting of a 10–12 mm deck ...

Virtual structural health monitoring and remaining life prediction of steel bridges [PDF]
In this study a Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) system is combined with Bridge Weigh-in-Motion (B-WIM) measurements of the actual traffic loading on a bridge to carry out a fatigue damage calculation.
