The Structural Engineer, Volume 52, Issue 4, 1974
The design and construction of a number of short span road bridges which were built to replace older structures in an urban area are described. G.T. Williams
A brief description is given of the finite-element method used to obtain the distribution of clamping pressure at the interfaces of lap joints. Relations are presented which enable the pressure to be calculated for ranges of the geometrical parameters likely to be found in structural steelwork joints, and the significance of the results obtained is discussed in relation to the strength of steels and the grades of bolts in common use. M.S.G. Cullimore and J.B. Eckhart
