Load distribution in edge-stiffening beam of a simply supported bridge deck

This study involves two distinct methods for analysis of a simply supported bridge deck with or without edge-stiffening beam and the effect of edge-stiffening on the longitudinal and transverse moments along the deck. An analysis of a slab bridge with or without edge-stiffening beams is made and the...
