  2. Hollow structural section - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollow_structural_section

    In the recent past, HSS was commonly available in mild steel, such as A500 grade B. Today, HSS is commonly available in mild steel, A500 grade C. Other steel grades available for HSS are A847 (weathering steel), A1065 (large sections up to 50 inch sq made with SAW process), and recently approved A1085 (higher strength, tighter tolerances than ...

    At the time of the collapse of the bridge, approximately 300 tons of construction equipment was located near several of the under-designed gusset plates. [ 4 ] The bridge was completed in 1967, but in 1977 and 1998, a median barrier, larger outside walls, and a thicker concrete deck were added to the bridge, causing additional loading on the ...

  7. Plate girder bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_girder_bridge

    In a plate girder bridge, the plate girders are typically I-beams made up from separate structural steel plates (rather than rolled as a single cross-section), which are welded or, in older bridges, bolted or riveted together to form the vertical web and horizontal flanges of the beam. In some cases, the plate girders may be formed in a Z-shape ...
