Abstract

A purpose-developed structural reliability assessment (SRA) framework for the evaluation of horizontally curved aluminium alloy bridge decks on steel I-girders of centre subtended angle, θ≤34.4 with precinct on the American association of state highway and transportation officials (AASHTO) load resistance factor design (LRFD) specification is presented. The finite element analysis (FEA) simulations were performed in the ABAQUS
