Centre of Gravity:Geometric point in structure where mass in concentrated - 4External ForcesLive Load Examples: Strong winds, Impact forces, Objects on or within structure
Dead Load: Weight of the parts that hold the structure together - 5Internal ForcesTension:Stretches Structure
Compression: Squashes structure
Torsion:Twists or rotates structure
Shear:Pulls or pushes in opposite directions - 6Bridge DefinitonsDead Load=Weight of bridge
Live Load=Weight of traffic
Deck=Section that carries live load
Pier=structure that supports the bridge
Span= Length of bridge or distance between piers
Foundations=at base of pier or towers
Approach= ramp or slope leading up to bridge - 7Definitions 2Concrete Abutment= Solid reinforced concrete supports at opposite ends of deck
