УВОД / INTRODUCTION:

Considering the socio-economic importance of bridge structures, their acceptance testing is generally a mandatory requirement before the bridge is put into operation. The dynamic test is a component of the acceptance testing process used to verify the numerical model of the bridge structure from a dynamic perspective. This paper presents the procedure for conducting dynamic tests on a segment of a bridge with a mixed structure deck, under standard conditions using test loads.
The experimental findings served as the basis for structural verification of the bridge deck in terms of execution quality and for the numerical model calibration, for future references studies.
