219. Live Load. The maximum live load depends, as a rule, upon the locality of the structure. It varies from street cars, heavy traction engines, trucks, and dense crowds of people in and near cities and towns, to light traction engines and droves of live stock in the country districts. So, in respect to the live load, highway bridges can be classed, except for isolated cases, as city bridges and country bridges. As
...each city bridge, as a rule, is a special problem, we shall consider only country bridges, although the general principles involved in the design of the two classes are identical.
The live load for country bridges is specified as a uniform load of so many pounds per square foot of floor the longer the span, the less the load or a load of so many tons concentrated on two axles from 10 to 12 ft. Apart, the transverse distance between the centers of the wheels being from 5 to 7 ft. The concentrated load is used where it produces a greater stress than the uniform load.
