Abstract
Presentation of samples of basic experimental data from research of spatial work of large-scale (scale 1: 4) reinforced concrete model of cross-ribbed span structure of the bridge and separate beams similar in structure to model beams, as well as methodological features and results of their analysis. During the tests, the model and separate (reference) beams were loaded with concentrated force, alternately at the intersections of the longitudinal and transverse ribs of the model. Deflections in the same nodes and support reactions of longitudinal beams were measured. A new methodological feature of this research was the determination of experimental bending moments in the model beams by direct comparison of the deflections of the model beams with similar deflections of separate (reference) beams. Depending on the location of the external load and the stiffness ratio, the load on the beams of the model is different. Taking into account an elastic-plastic stage of their work, the method of calculation of the maximum bending moments in the most loaded beams is offered in this paper.
