In this paper, the results of experimental analysis for the chemical composition and strengh verification of Bailey Panel Bridge have been presented. Some of main sections of bailey bridge colllected from military engineer troops were prepared for the chemical composition and strengh verification. The composition test and strength verification were conducted by using the optical microscope and Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM), Automatic Control Spark Emission Spectrometer(OBLF), X-ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy(XRF) and Instron measurement. The results showed that currently used sections of bailey bridge passed the strength verification and could be operated in drill of troops and battle fields.

In this paper, the results of computational analysis for the stability and F.S.(Factor of Safety) of Bailey Panel Bridge have been presented by FEM(Finite Element Method). The computational analysis was conducted by using LUSAS V14.0 that is a program applicated in the field of Civil Engineering. 6-free beam elements and 3-free truss elements were considered and F.S. against Yield Stress of main sections(considered self-weight and Live-Load) was investigated through the linear-elastic analysis method. The results showed that currently used sections of bailey bridge satisfied for the standard F.S. unit and could be operated in drill of troops and battle fields.
