Abstract
The results of experiments on two-span continuous beams subjected to various programs of variable repeated loading are reported and analyzed. The loading program was designed to simulate the effects of a one-and two-point heavy load moving slowly across the beam. The experiments were performed on 1.5 in. by 0.75 in. rectangular, heat-treated, steel bars and on as-rolled, wide-flange, two-span steel beams. The test results are examined in accordance with a shakedown analysis based on the simple plastic theory. Design implications with special reference to bridges are also considered.
