Sétra is a Technical Department for Transport, Roads and Bridges Engineering and Road Safety of the French ministry of Ecology, Energy, Sustainable Development and the Sea, in charge of green technologies and climate change negotiations.
As a center of excellence in infrastructure and transport engineering, Sétra has to produce and spread state of art knowledge and know how.
Sétra’s essential aim is to support national and local authorities in their policies to provide an effi cient and safe road network for people and goods, and to develop an integrated and sustainable European transportation system. In all the strategic fi elds dealing with road, bridges, multimodal and intermodal facilities, it provides expertise, methodologies, guidelines, as well as software and information systems.
To elaborate these methodologies and facilitate use of emerging technologies and innovative practices Sétra works with a broad range of public and private stakeholders.
Sétra has a strong focus on exchanging experiences and knowledge within the international community. It is an active member of PIARC committees (World Road Association) and, as a technical approval body, is an EOTA member (European Organisation for Technical Approvals)
The site also has some good guideline to segmental and timber bridges.

hi everyone,
I am doing my Mtech project related to cable stayed bridges. i searched with some of the companies for detailed drawing af the model . I couldnt get any help. Pls if anyone has the drawing of a cable stayed bridge with material properties can upload here. It will be very helpful. Pls do help.
Dynamic Behaviour of Reinforced Concrete Frames Designed with Direct Displacemen-Based Design
By J. Didier Pettinga
M.J. Nigel Priestley
Year: 2005
Pages: 162
Reinforced concrete frame structures are a common building form in seismically active regions. However, the use of such structural forms and the inherent variability in geometric proportions, sectional shapes and material properties mens that the dynamic behaviour under earthquake loading has been, and remains, difficult to consistently evaluate.

IMPLEMENTATION OF THE DIRECT DISPLACEMENT-BASED DESIGN METHOD FOR SEISMIC DESIGN OF HIGHWAY BRIDGES
Vinicio A. Suarez and Mervyn J. Kowalsky
Department of Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering, North Carolina State University, Campus-Box 7908, Raleigh, NC-27695, USA
Pages: 60
This paper presents the DDBD method with all the details required for its application to the design of conventional highway bridges. The method presented here includes new features such as: the incorporation of the displacement capacity of the superstructure as a design parameter, the determination of a stability-based target displacement for piers the design of skewed bents and abutments, among others.
