ABSTRACT
It has to be remembered that loading models used in codes do not represent actual loads; rather they reflect the effect of actual loads on bridges. 15.2 NOTIONAL LANES The carriageway width w is in general measured between the kerbs. The width of one notional lane is taken as 3 m. The number of notional lanes and their width are related to the carriageway width w, as shown in Table 15.1.
