Long Description: Figure 28. Normalized Shear Load Effects for Simple Spans (3-S2, Scenario 1, 2 and 3)

Normalized shear load effects on Simple Span Bridges are illustrated in Figure 28 for the 3-S2 control vehicle and Scenarios 1, 2 and 3 configurations. The matrix is organized by normalized load effect (0 to 2) by span length (0 to 260 feet) for the 3-S2 control vehicle and Scenario 1-3 configurations. The shear load effects range from 1 to 1.3 at 20 feet to 1.0 to 1.25 at 240 feet.
