Description
Use of finite element modelling (FEM) to predict structural behaviour under static and dynamic loading conditions is a well-established aspect of the bridge design process. The Cherrywood Luas viaduct carries the Luas light rail system through proposed development lands at Cherrywood, South County Dublin. As part of development plans in the area it is proposed to create a new street adjacent and parallel to the existing viaduct with associated footpaths and landscaping. It is proposed to integrate the new structure supporting the street into the existing light rail bridge structure.
