Support Motion Effects in a Timber Trestle Bridge: Physical and Analytical Modeling (Oct. 2006, MPC-06-184, Project #215)
Steven A. Babcock, Richard M. Gutkowski, Wayne A. Charlie, and Jeno Balogh

This study presents the results of the most recent phase of laboratory research. The effects of support movements observed in the field test were examined by physical laboratory testing and computer-based structural modeling using AxisVM software [Inter-CAD. Kft, 2004]. The goal of this research was to begin developing analytical tools to help predict the performance capabilities of in-situ bridges with support motions included.
