Abstract
Numerical analyses have been carried out in order to check the applicability of high-strength steel to a medium-sized steel bridge. Using the yield strength of steel, Average Daily Truck Traffic (ADTT), and fatigue grade of structural detail as analytical parameters, the minimum weight sections that satisfy the limit states of the AASHTO LRFD design specification were determined through an optimization scheme. Likewise, the effects of the number of girders and span length on the applicability of high-strength steel were evaluated. Results show that high-strength steel may be employed in the steel bridge, since steel weight decreases with increasing yield strength regardless of the fatigue effect. Nonetheless, appropriate countermeasures against fatigue should be determined since it is a major factor in the effective use of high-strength steel in steel bridges.
