1. Which parts have maximum bending moment 2. Vertical of open web girder is tension members or compression member 3. What is camber design

Question

Accepted Answer

The maximum bending moment occurs at the points of maximum deflection in a structural element.

Bending moment is the internal moment that causes a structural element to bend.
The maximum bending moment typically occurs at the points of maximum deflection in a beam or girder.
These points are usually located at the supports or at concentrated loads.
The bending moment can be calculated using structural analysis methods such as the moment distribution method or finite element analysis.

Accepted Answer

1.  At centre
2. Tension
3. Camber design of bridge is related to load distribution in behalf of fbd
