In this paper the effects of live loads on the displacement of the corrugated steel structure buried in soil, i.e. soil-steel structure, will be analysed. The loads are movable, but have characteristic of static passes. The results of strain measurements with relatively dense layout located around the periphery of the corrugated steel structure are used to calculate its deformations.

    By using dense layout of strain gauges any direction of the structure displacement can be calculated based on the changes of the strains in the analysed circumferential strip (part) of the structure. Simple FE models are constructed in order to accurately perform such calculation. Note that the existing analytical calculations method dedicated to soil-steel structures do not provide any possibility to calculate deformation of the steel shell. Therefore, this paper describes sufficient methodology that allows to calculate steel shell deformation in soilsteel structures bridge subjected to different live load models.
