Summary
This paper presents a case study of a short-span railway bridge which has been
designed according to Brazilian standards for railway bridge design. The study
includes a dynamic analysis of the bridge when it is crossed by a typical urban
passenger transportation system. The analysis is performed employing a dynamic
interacting model which has been developed by the authors and has been presented
in a previous paper. In spite of several simplifying assumptions made, preliminary
results indicate that design may be over conservative.
