The article discusses how bridges react to moving vehicles, which is important for designing safe highway bridges. The researchers calculated the dynamic factor for single-span bridges under typical traffic loads. They also looked at multi-span continuous bridges and suggested a way to estimate the dynamic factor for steel girder bridges based on their length and number of spans.
