....factors Reduction factors were calibrated by comparing the frequency distribution of maximum effects due to a hypothetical traffic to that of the design traffic. The Swiss design traffic load model was developed using probabilistic methods and the type of traffic that it represents is thus known [3]. For a given action effect (support moment, midspan moment or support shear) and a defined bridge (span, construction type) the frequency distributions of maximum traffic action effects were derived using the site specific model developed in [1] for both the design traffic and a hypothetical ....

....designed in order to achieve a certain target reliability. TRAFFIC LOAD MODEL In the framework of the new Swiss loading standard [SIA160 1989] work was carried out in order to develop traffic load models for the design of road bridges at the serviceability and ultimate limit states [Bez 1987 and Bez 1989] The aim of the work was to calibrate the traffic load model so that design would result in bridges of uniform reliability for all types of structural system and construction materials. The first stage of development was to gather traffic data in Switzerland and from neighboring countries. ....

....to Swiss design codes in order to identify the critical limit state functions and to determine appropriate values for design variables. The probabilistic characteristics assigned to design variables are summarized in Table 1. Values were selected as a result of a literature study of work by others [3, 4, 5, 7]. These values are not critical since the reliability indices were used only for comparing different types of traffic, but it is important that their selection is realistic so as to reflect the relative importance of traffic loading within limit state functions. Different traffic types and flow ....
