111 Project information Short project description Nemetschek Engineering User Contest 2011 - Category 2: Civil Structures Category 2: Civil Structures 2 Owner Directorate-General for Public Works and Water Management (RWS) Engineering Office Ingenieursbureau Oranjewoud B.V. Construction Period From 2011 to 2012 Location Dordrecht, The Netherlands The project is about the strengthening or replacing of 3 bridges. In addition to total replacement of the bridge decks, another option would be to reinforce the existing decks by gluing a steel plate onto the slow lanes. A global model has been built to calculate the strength, stiffness and fatigue of the main steel structure and the deck superstructure. Furthermore, local models are created to calculate the strength and fatigue of the glue line between the reinforced plate and the deck plate of the bridge. To determine the Sigma(N)-curve as a boundary value we created a Scia Engineer model of the fatigue test setup. Bridge Renovation Project Dordrecht, The Netherlands
