Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An international team of experts has joined forces to produce the Bridge Engineering Handbook. They address all facets-the planning, design, inspection, construction, and maintenance of a variety of bridge structures-creating a must-have resource for every bridge engineer. This unique, comprehensive reference provides the means to review standard practices and keep abreast of new developments and state-of-the-art practices. Comprising 67 chapters in seven sections, the authors present: Fundamentals: Provides the basic concepts and theory of bridge engineering Superstructure Design: Discusses all types of bridges Substructure Design: Addresses columns, piers, abutments, and foundations Seismic Design: Presents the latest in seismic bridge design Construction and Maintenance: Focuses on the practical issues of bridge structures Special Topics: Offers new and important information and unique solutions Worldwide Practice: Summarizes bridge engineering practices around the world. Discover virtually all you need to know about any type of bridge: Reinforced, Segmental, and Prestressed Concrete Steel beam and plate girder Steel box girder Orthotropic deck Horizontally curved Truss Arch Suspension Cable-stayed Timber Movable Floating Railroad Special attention is given to rehabilitation, retrofit, and maintenance, and the Bridge Engineering Handbook offers over 1,600 tables, charts, and illustrations in ready-to-use format. An abundance of worked-out examples give readers step-by-step design procedures and the section on Worldwide Practice provides a broad and valuable perspective on the "big picture" of bridge engineering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of prestressing laminated wood bridge decks was conceived in ontario in 1976 as a method of upgrading existing deteriorated nailed laminated wood decks. the success of the technique as a method of rehabilitation prompted considerable research and development aimed at introducing it into new construction. this work led to the formulation of a comprehensive set of design specifications, which have since been adapted into the ontario highway bridge design code. by 1985, more than 16 bridges incorporated the prestressed wood concept in various ways. this paper discusses a number of these field structures in order to demonstrate the flexibility of the prestressed wood deck system. the paper describes the applicability of the system, construction sequence, and field problems. in addition, construction costs for some of the applications are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper describes the calculation of load and resistance factors for the Ontario Highway Bridge Design code (OHBDC) 1991 edition. The work involved the development of load and resistance models, the selection of the reliability analysis method, and the calculation of the reliability indices. The statistical models for load and resistance are reviewed. The considered load components include dead load, live load, and dynamic load. Resistance models are developed for girder bridges (steel, reinforced concrete, and prestressed concrete). A reliability analysis is performed for selected representative structures. Reliability indices are calculated using an iterative procedure. The calculations are performed for bridge girders designed using OHBDC 1983 edition. The resulting reliability indices are between 3 and 4 for steel girders and reinforced concrete T-beams, and between 3.5 and 5 for prestressed concrete girders. Lower values are observed for shorter spans (up to 30-40 m). The acceptance criterion in the selection of load and risistance factors is closeness to the target reliability level. The analysis confirmed the need to increase the design live load for shorter spans. Partial resistance factors are considered for steel and concrete. the criteria for the evaluation of existing bridges are based on the reliability analysis and economic considerations.
