where can i find equations for Pigeaud’s curves used in bridge deck slab analysis?

Saroj B asked:


Long ago M. Pigeaud developed these curves which help to analysis and design RCC bridge deck. But these curves are cumbersome to use since they involve lot of minute graphical works and interpolations. To use these curves in computer we need the equations, which could make the engineer’s life a lot easier.

    Use the U.S. Army tech manuals for this. they build bridges that must carry tanks. any u.s. govt printing office has these. any federal building will have a bookstore. it is a real eye opener when you get into one. found the official USN history of the patrol torpedo boat, with pix (see the movie, “they were expendable”) there are also stanard texts on building truss and suspension bridges
