Abstrait:	The paper presents a numerical and experimental assessment of the dynamic effects induced by pedestrians on a stress-ribbon footbridge built in the Portuguese city of Benavente. As a characteristic of this typology, the bridge displays a lively behaviour and is particularly vulnerable to the excitation induced by running and jogging pedestrians. The present investigation aims at verifying the conservativeness of existing load models on the basis of an experiment in which both the pedestrian action and the footbridge response are characterised.
