1. Box Girder Bridge with Skew Abutments

In File\Examples\Demo Examples & FAQ, Users can find the Frequently Asked Questions and Solutions section for RM Bridge Enterprise. The first Demo example presented is one Box Girder Bridge with Skew Abutments and demonstrates the design of a 4 span pre-stressed concrete box girder.

The User can learn how to:

• Create the structural system geometry.
• Define a box girder with variable dimensions.
• Define the structural model with Node-Element-Assignments, Cross section and material assignment, etc.
• Sub-structure modelling including modelling of bearings.

For Construction Stage analysis

• System activation for different construction stages
• Cross Sectional property variation (as cable ducts are grouted)
• Construction sequence loading
• Creep and Shrinkage loading during different construction stages
• Accumulation of stresses from the different construction stages
• Fibre stress checks for the different construction stages

Traffic load and static load analysis

• Traffic loading
• Load combinations
• Fibre stress checks
