Abstract

This paper highlights areas of inaccuracy in current modelling techniques for bridge decks with wide cantilevers. The upstand grillage model is assessed by comparing its behaviour with that of a three-dimensional finite element model. Recommendations are made for the implementation of such a technique. The paper concludes with a comparison of results from analyses of a bridge deck using the standard and upstand grillage analogies and the finite element method.
