The predictions by the proposed method were larger than the predictions by numerical analysis until about 200 days after superimposed
dead load was applied, and thereafter, they were smaller than the predictions by numerical analysis.
According to the aforesaid, the second method of "rigid" cable formation shall be analyzed, i.e., bearing cable during its installation will adopt the entire
dead load as an absolutely flexible cable, and after the completion of bridge erection it will behave as "rigid" cable ([E.sub.c][J.sub.c] [not equal to] 0).
From finishing preloading (day 100) to observation being over (day 150), the pile-soil pressure ratio rose from 13.2 to 15, and the shared load ratio rose from 0.72 to 0.82, indicating that the pile-soil pressure ratio and the shared load ratio still rose gradually after
dead load, the load carried by the pile soil transferred to the pile top, and the effect of reinforcement on the composite foundation strengthened continually.
In the mathematical model (6) - (16) L is the length vector of the structure's elements; A(x) is the vector-function of cross-section geometry conversion into the area of cross-section, when [[PI].sub.0k] [member of] ([A.sub.0k], [W.sub.pl,y0k]); [[phi].sub.j] is the vector of values of yield conditions under the -th point in the locus; [u.sub.e,inf], [u.sub.e,sup] are the vectors of the lower and upper values of elastic displacements in the structure subjected to VRL (1), (2); [u.sub.e,c], [S.sub.e,c] are the vectors of elastic displacements and elastic internal forces in the structure subjected to the
dead load; [[PI].sub.0,min], [[PI].sub.0,max] are the vectors of the lower and upper values of the cross-section parameters.
where RF = rating factor; R = component resistance (bending, shear, etc.); D and L =
dead load and live load effects corresponding to R respectively; and I = dynamic allowance (impact) factor.
For PA walls with
dead load, failure modes were consistent with tests without
dead load; however, additional fastener damage, common to FA walls, resulted from the additional resistance to overturning.
For this example building assume that the
dead load consists of the self weight of the building structure, plus additional
dead load applied to the floors and additional
dead load applied to the beams around the perimeter of the building.
Furthermore, RAKSLIM cuts down almost half of the weight of conventional tiling, resulting in a significant reduction of
dead load on building structures and subsequently reduced structure costs.
Bush signed the first
dead load aboard Pre-Commissioning Unit George H.W.
"The leaves of the bascule bridges [drawbridges] are very sensitive to changes in the movable span's
dead load [that is, the bridge's own weight]," Holcomb says.
