Analysis of Composite Cable Stayed Bridge using Program SES

摘要

Program SES is specialized bridge analysis program, which have experiences to analyze several Cable Stayed Bridges, including Seohae bridge, in Korea. Based upon these experiences, some basic functions of program SES will be introduced in this paper, so as to build a more useful bridge analysis program. In selecting the basic functions, three different kinds of approach are applied. First one is how well describe the bridge as a structure, second one is how precisely simulate the construction stage. Last one is how easily combine the loads in service state.
