| Summary | .As truss bridge collapse in US, it is a possibility that fracture critical member collapse causes whole bridge collapse depending on structures of bridges. In order to establish design method that can evaluate performance effects of the fracture critical members on bridges as a whole, NILIM conducted trial calculations using several types of simulation models and analyzed the results in view of accuracy and practicality |
