Integral Concrete Bridges to Eurocode 2

This guide describes the design of a two-span integral concrete bridge, comprising precast pretensioned concrete beams with a reinforced concrete in-situ deck, to the relevant European Standards - applied in accordance with their UK National Annexes.

The guidance given in this publication is with respect to pretensioned concrete but the difference in the approach between BS 5400 and BS EN 1992-2, which generally treats prestressed and reinforced concrete in the same way, means that some of the guidance given in this document is equally valid in the design of a reinforced concrete or post-tensioned concrete bridge structure.

Guidance on the Assessment of Concrete Bridges

This publication contains guidance on a variety of topics related to the assessment of concrete bridges. Following the publication of BD21 in 1984, bridge assessment has become an increasingly-important function in the UK as the post-war generation of concrete bridges ages and has more demands placed upon it. Nevertheless, it is recognised that sub-standard bridges still exist and are in need of proper and professional assessment in order to maintain a healthy and safe national bridge stock. The purpose of this publication is to both record the experiences of the past and to offer examples of best practice for the future. It covers a wide range of topics and is well-illustrated.

Self-compacting Concrete in Bridge Construction

Defines self-compacting concrete. Outlines the historical development and the need for self-compacting concrete. Describes its use in bridges, the constituent materials and mixes found in self-compacting concrete, the production and construction processes, and the properties of both fresh and hardened varieties. Also addresses benefits, specification and conformity testing, current limitations, and further research and development.

Stone Matrix Asphalt

In the years since the development and subsequent success of Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA), a plethora of articles have emerged, scattered throughout various publications. The time is right for a comprehensive resource that collects, examines, and organizes this information and makes it easily accessible. A compilation and distillation of the latest knowledge available, Stone Matrix Asphalt: Theory and Practice describes SMA, from its origin through implementation, and explores various methods and design approaches.
Detailing the requirements and materials for the mix, including asphalt binder, aggregates, and stabilizers, the book covers standard and alternative design methods and their execution, as well as best practices and production processes. It addresses issues such as permanent deformation and fatigue resistance, as well as special applications, such as bridge deck surfacing and airfields. The book uses practical examples to illustrate theory, presents practical tips useful in everyday work, and includes a review of problems that can occur during laydown, and their potential solutions.
Drawn from the author’s extensive experience during the introduction of SMA in the early 1990s and discussions with many process engineers, the book provides the practical information needed to customize methods for individual applications of SMA. Blazejowski puts together a picture, drawn from a broad range of literature. The result: a reference that is handy, practical, and easy to use.
