Evaluation of the extreme traffic load effects on the Forth Road Bridge using image analysis of traffic data. |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
•Congestion governs traffic loading on long-span bridges – this method overcomes the fact that weights cannot be measured in congested conditions.•Finding extreme traffic load effects on the Forth Road suspension Bridge using only vehicle lengths from image data.•The weights of vehicles are inferred from their lengths based on statistical correlation.•The site-specific characteristic load is estimated for 75 and 1000-year return period.•The influence of inter-vehicle gaps and lane changing on effectiveness of the approach is considered. |
