Refer to Design Step 1 for introductory information about this design example. Additional information is presented about the design assumptions, methodology, and criteria for the entire bridge, including the steel girder. Figure 3-1 Span Configuration. Figure 3-2 Superstructure Cross Section.
HYPOFLUORESCENCE Hypofluorescence may be caused by 1) blocked fluorescence, which is synonymous with negative fluorescence or transmission decrease, or 2) a vascular filling defect. Blocked fluorescence corresponds to the size, shape, and location of the blocking material seen ophthalmoscopically.
Most often, the emitted light has a lower energy (longer wavelength)than the absorbed light. So, most often any fluorescence we can see is produced by light withhigher energies (shorter wavelengths) than visible light. This shorter-wavelength light isultraviolet, the kind that causes sunburn.
