Effect of Stiff Hangers on the Longitudinal Structural Behavior of Tied-Arch Bridges

Effect of Stiff Hangers on the Longitudinal Structural Behavior of Tied-Arch Bridges

In the design process of an arch bridge, the designer may decide to stiffen the hangers linking the arch and the deck, usually in order to reduce the internal forces or the deflections. In this paper, the effect of stiffened hangers on the longitudinal in-plane structural behavior of arch bridges is...
