Description:

This paper deals with the phenomenon of track-bridge interaction in railway bridges. Due to the continuity of the rails on the structural expansion joints, the deformations of the deck might induce stresses in the rails that need to be checked. The main design criteria are now specified in Eurocode 1-2.
