Moisture Content Monitoring of a Timber Footbridge
BioResources, 2016 Construction of modern timber bridges has greatly increased during the last 20 years in Sweden. Wood as a construction material has several advantageous properties, e.g., it is renewable, sustainable, and aesthetically pleasing, but it is also susceptible to deterioration.

TIMBER FOOTBRIDGES – VALORIZATION OF PARAMETRIC ANALYSIS IN OPTIMIZATION OF LAYOUT OF BEAM BRIDGES
Modern structures of metal and wood, 2022 Paper presents results of the analysis of possible design solutions of timber beam bridges considering all usual demands for their stability, safety and functionality when they are designed to serve pedestrian and cyclist traffic, and, if necessary, traffic of emergency and service vehicles as well.

Walking-induced vibration of a footbridge [PDF]
, 2015 In the last years, the need for structures able to link the functional and aesthetic role has led engineers and architects to design footbridges characterized by long span, light materials and increasing slenderness.

Dynamics effects on a wooden footbridge
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2017 The timber is the current trend for the construction of many footbridges because of many reasons as price, aesthetics and ecology. Most of these structures are designed using simple static models and massive elements.

Design of Lightweight Footbridges for Human Induced Vibrations [PDF]
, 2009 Nowadays, it is well-known that for the structural safety verification of footbridges, and for the comfort guarantee of its users, it is fundamental to consider the effect of human induced vibrations, particularly: vibrations due to pedestrian traffic ...

In situ testing and nonlinear modelling for a cable-stayed timber footbridge [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2014 The authors had the chance to collect structural response measurements of a cable-stayed glued-laminated-timber (GLT) footbridge located in Farra d’Alpago (not far from the town of Belluno, in North-Eastern Italy). A consistent geometrically nonlinear finite element model was generated and its parameters were calibrated on the experimental data ...
