Analysis of the Two Span Main Truss Girder of the Danube Bridge Between Ruse and Giurgiu in Accordance with Eurocode Requirements

The bridge over the Danube River between Ruse, Bulgaria, and Giurgiu, Romania, was constructed between 1952 and 1954. This paper focuses on the main truss girder of the bridge, which consists of two equal spans, each measuring 160 meters. The steel truss structure supports both road and railway traffic. A finite element (FE) model of the main truss has been developed and analyzed in accordance with contemporary Eurocode standards. The main truss elements have been verified, and a comparative analysis has been conducted. Conclusions are presented based on the findings.

Abstract

The bridge over the Danube River between Ruse, Bulgaria, and Giurgiu, Romania, was constructed between 1952 and 1954. This paper focuses on the main truss girder of the bridge, which consists of two equal spans, each measuring 160 meters. The steel truss structure supports both road and railway traffic. A finite element (FE) model of the main truss has been developed and analyzed in accordance with contemporary Eurocode standards. The main truss elements have been verified, and a comparative analysis has been conducted. Conclusions are presented based on the findings.
