What is Load Rating?What is Load Rating?The safe live load carrying capacity of a highway structure is called its load rating.
RF = C – A1 * D
A2 * (L + I)
A1 = Factor for dead loads
A2 = Factor for live load
C = Capacity of the bridge
D = Dead loads
I = Impact loads
L = Live loads
How to calculate the rating factor (RF)
RF = Capacity for (L+I)
Actual (L + I)
