29 Analysis of Expansion Joint (Cont d) 29
30 Analysis of Expansion Joint (Cont d) 30
31 Analysis of Expansion Joint (Cont d) Determine the location of the truck when deck detaches from top flange -MIDAS Civil Moving Tracer Tool Location of truck causing maximum and minimum displacement of deck -Two locations of trucks causing a gap between deck and top flange 31
32 Analysis of Expansion Joint (Cont d) Moving Load Tracer 32
33 Analysis of Expansion Joint (Cont d) Moving Tracer Results Maximum (upward) displacement at midspan Minimum (downward) displacement at midspan 33
34 Analysis of Expansion Joint (Cont d) Case 1: Maximum (upward) displacement of deck at expansion joint N Through Girder Pier 6 (North) Pier 7 Deck Joint 16 kips wheel load 4 kips wheel load Through Girder (South) 34
35 Analysis of Expansion Joint (Cont d) Case 1: Maximum (upward) displacement of deck at expansion joint Through Girder (North) gap Deck Joint Through Girder (South) 35
36 Analysis of Expansion Joint (Cont d) Case 1: Maximum (upward) displacement of deck at expansion joint gap gap 36
37 Analysis of Expansion Joint (Cont d) Case 2: Minimum (downward) displacement of deck at expansion joint N Through Girder Pier 6 (North) Pier 7 Through Girder (South) Deck Joint 16 kips wheel load 4 kips wheel load 37
38 Analysis of Expansion Joint (Cont d) Through Girder (North) gap Deck Joint Through Girder (South) gap 38
39 Conclusion Load Rating Method -Composite girders/floorbeams (midas Civil) -Non-composite floorbeam (spreadsheet using results from midas Civil) -Through girders (spreadsheet using results from midas Civil) midas Civil advantages -User friendly -Graphic user interface -Fast and accurate bridge modeling - General section designer 39
