This work include an example of sensitivity analysis for the design of a composite footbridge. A sandwich structure is used, consisting two high-strength skins separated by a core material. The analysis was conducted for two numerical models. The first one is a simple, single-span beam of a composite cross-section (laminate and foam), with different Young’s modulus for each material. Calculations were made by means of a MATLAB-based Finite Element Method code. Next a 3D shell-solid model was considered, computed by the SOFISTIK. The sensitivity analysis investigated how the variation of thickness of individual elements of cross-section, acts on the middle-span deflection of a footbridge.
