Dynamic test of a bridge over the Danube - Black Sea Channel at Agigea

Abstract Taking into consideration the importance of a bridge structure from economic and social point of view, the experimental testing of bridges before commissioning is mandatory for almost all the bridges. The analyzed bridge is a very important route for road vehicles and pedestrians to overpass the Danube – Black Sea Channel near the Agigea Port. The paper presents the dynamic tests of the bridge and the experimental results commented from two points of view. The results are related to the dynamic characteristics of the bridge and to the comfort of the pedestrians subjected to the vibrations induced by road traffic.
