Beskrivelse:A comparative study of the dynamic behavior of twin single-span bridges was carried out based on operational modal analysis and a linear finite element model updating with the aim of finding a potential damage indicator. The bridges are skewed, 30 m long and with prestressed concrete girders as the main support structure, but one of them were collided and suffered damage in two of its I-shape girders. Ambient vibration tests were conducted by deploying 14 uniaxial accelerometers along the sidewalks, experimental modal parameters were identified using the COVariance-driven Stochastic Subspace Identification method (SSI-COV). Six vertical modes were clearly identified for each structure. Additionally, some extra modes with non-proportional damping were identified. It was found that the modal frequencies are sensitive to the support conditions and the overall stiffness of the bridge but not to the localized girder damage, which, on the contrary, is reflected in the discrepancy in the fundamental bending mode shape amplitude between the lateral sides of the bridge, and a so-called Continuous Symmetry Measure adopted as a symmetry index seems to be a good damage indicator for this type of straight-alignment simply supported bridges, given the symmetric nature of the bending mode shapes and the asymmetric nature of the damage.
