    Abstract

    Bridge girders consisting of multiple parallel pre-stressed Tee-beams are often analysed as grillage systems. Such grillage systems can be categorised and the analysis of such systems can be automated to a high degree exploiting common features of such multiple Tee-beams. A study has been undertaken to define these features and to form the basis for a computer method for the analysis and the design checks of multiple Tee-beam bridges. Application examples given in this paper illustrate this method and its application in a computer program.
