This book is aimed at engineering students and practicing engineers. Each chapter gradually presents the complete study of a continuous bridge with two spans.
Combining theory with practice, this book presents the design, analysis, and sizing of composite bridges made of steel and reinforced concrete based on the specifications of the Eurocodes.
The content includes:
- rules for forming composite bridges
- the traffic loads of road and railway bridges
- the selection of structural materials
- recommendations for simulating the structure for global analysis
- checks against limit states of failure, serviceability, and fatigue
- the check for slab bending
- the seismic design of bridges
- the design of bearings, including seismic isolation
The text is supplemented with application examples and a complete example study of a bridge.
