Product Description:
Steel Concrete Composite Bridges outlines the various forms that modern steel-concrete composite bridges take, from simple beam bridges through to arches and trusses and modern cable stay forms. It brings together a wide variety of steel-concrete composite bridge types, many of which have not been covered in any existing book or design guide. It outlines design rules for composite action and provides examples of their use in a wide variety of practical applications. It shows how composite bridges may be designed simply from basic concepts without the need for a clause by clause checking of codes and standards. The book uses examples of various bridges to illustrate the methods of design and construction. The book looks impartially at the construction form and compares composite bridges with other forms and places limits on their use. It outlines emerging technologies such as folded plate webs, double composite action and extradosed girders, all of which are likely to grow in importance for the future bridge designer.
