Product Description:
This book is devoted to bridges that are built by incremental launching methods, using prestressed composite materials. It integrates the static, aesthetic, and economic aspects of construction techniques for building these state-of-the-art structures. Bridge launching is a comprehensive handbook, offering explanations of both the theoretical and technological aspects of the construction process. Both beam bridges and arch bridges are thoroughly analysed,and special theories aimed at optimising static aspects, as well as local phenomena, are developed. Construction assembly and pre-stressing methods for bridge segments and launching techniques are described together with assessment of load conditions, design assumptions by means of field monitoring and data recording. Presented within this essential handbook are sections on prestressed concrete bridges include cast-in-situ and segmental precast structures, composite bridges include I-girder open sections and box girders, and prestressed composite bridges includes stiffened and corrugated-plate webs. Design and technological requirements of launch equipment are discussed for the individual bridge types to provide more detail for the reader. This invaluable book is a must-buy for all those involved in bridge construction and innovative building techniques,such as bridge owners, design offices, bridge consultants, and construction equipment suppliers.
