Dynamic Behaviour of Steel-Concrete Composite Bridge under Moving Loads

Aniket Bharat Mhatre, Girish Joshi

Abstract


Composite structure is a structure which is constructed using multiple dissimilar materials. The construction is called composite when two different types of materials are strongly bond together to act as a single unit. For a composite bridge deck a reinforced concrete slab is placed on the steel plate girder to form a complete structure. Use of composite structure has widely grown in the 21st century. This paper gives the brief review about the steel concrete composite bridge. These composite structures have many advantages such as flexibility, durability, greater tortional rigidity and they also have greater construction and maintenance benefits as compared to any normal structure. Many research papers were reviewed related to the composite structures and the detailed report was discussed in this paper. The paper discuss briefly about the technical application and principles of the composite bridges having long or medium span. This research article also gives the detailed idea about the various technical parameters related to the composite structures. It discusses about the various factors affecting the design of bridge and also about various analysis which are carried on the structures by different researchers over the period of time. The research also indicates that the high performing steel concrete composite structures have a promising future in construction areas.
