This paper presents simulation analysis of load effects of bridges under random fleet. Based on actual data of vehicle loads on Guangzhou-Shenzhen Expressway and relevant statistical results, mid-span bending moments of long-span virtual simple-supported beams are calculated. Then probability distribution of the bending moments and extreme value distribution of the load effects within design reference period are obtained. Finally, characteristic values of mid-span bending moments and recommended values of design lane load are calculated, sequentially. The results studied in this paper can be as a reference for long-span bridge design, and also can be a reference for overloading control or weight charge policy.

The design of bridges, in particular long spanned ones, is challenging in the sense that there are many complicated issues to be considered. Amidst the loads to be considered, like dead load, live load, wind load, and earthquake load, the wind load becomes the prime concern for the design of the bridges. The paper will introduce several newly evolved kinds of girder that were based on commonly known physic natural law by structural engineer. Further structural analysis and wind effect research should be done in the future to validate and decide the structural member dimensions. The main problem to be solved in strait crossing bridge is lateral wind load that will effect traffic safety as well as wind effect on structures (statically and dynamically) for long span bridge arrangement.
