• Abstract:
  Several hundred Florida bridges span waterways deep enough for barge traffic. To ensure a bridge is capable of withstanding the potential impact of a barge collision, engineers use design specifications recommended by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO). The AASHTO design provisions employ a static analysis approach, primarily taking into account the weight of the components at rest.
