However, the maximum total moment allowing for dynamics, may differ considerably from the maximum moment at mid-span. This paper shows how the maximum can occur in a section relatively far from mid-span with a significant difference in magnitude.1211046 bytesapplication/pdfenBridgeDynamicStress analysisBridges--Live loadsJournal Article162BE2758510.1680/bren.2009.162.2.75https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/1.0/
