Book Types and Details of Bridge Construction  Vol  1

Download or read book Types and Details of Bridge Construction Vol 1 written by Frank W. Skinner and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Types and Details of Bridge Construction, Vol. 1: Examples of Constructed Wooden, Combination, Wrought Iron and Steel Arches for Highway and Railroad Bridges, a Collection of Essential Features of Special and Important Work, Illustrating Variety of Design, Development of Standard Practice and Methods Of It is the purpose to present in Types and Details of Bridge Construction the development of advanced practice and its standard details, to illustrate the classes of structures adapted to different conditions, show some of the characteristic differences between American and foreign design and illustrate some primitive or obsolete constructions, besides recording important and well-known examples so as to have their principal data easily accessible. The first consideration in the selection and preparation of data has been in every case to show clearly the special and important features and give only what is essential to the design and present the requirements, conditions and methods involved in the construction and erection of the work. Some explanations have been added to promote clearer appreciation or interesting comparisons. Generally, when structures are essentially duplicates, only one of them is described, and the others are compared with them and their varying or distinguishing characteristics noted. The list of structures described is not complete and the classification is not absolute, but suffice to illustrate different types and show a wide range of practice in details. The bridges have been arranged in order and grouped in classes, and the descriptions are in most cases supplemented by specific references to any more extended articles which have been published about them in technical journals or professional papers, and may be consulted in libraries for additional data in special cases. Some of the most interesting data have been received especially for this book through the kindness and friendship of the engineers associated with the construction of the bridges described. In some cases these data included rare photographs and valuable drawings, and I take pleasure in expressing my thanks for them to Messrs. Theodore Cooper, F. S. Cook, John Stirling Deans, H. W. King, C. F. Loweth, Foster Milliken, C. N. Monsarrat, A. W. Munster, F. C. Osborn and J. A. L. Waddell. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Highway Bridge Superstructure Engineering

Download or read book Highway Bridge Superstructure Engineering written by Narendra Taly and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-11-21 with total page 966 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A How-To Guide for Bridge Engineers and Designers Highway Bridge Superstructure Engineering: LRFD Approaches to Design and Analysis provides a detailed discussion of traditional structural design perspectives, and serves as a state-of-the-art resource on the latest design and analysis of highway bridge superstructures. This book is applicable to highway bridges of all construction and material types, and is based on the load and resistance factor design (LRFD) philosophy. It discusses the theory of probability (with an explanation leading to the calibration process and reliability), and includes fully solved design examples of steel, reinforced and prestressed concrete bridge superstructures. It also contains step-by-step calculations for determining the distribution factors for several different types of bridge superstructures (which form the basis of load and resistance design specifications) and can be found in the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications. Fully Realize the Basis and Significance of LRFD Specifications Divided into six chapters, this instructive text: Introduces bridge engineering as a discipline of structural design Describes numerous types of highway bridge superstructures systems Presents a detailed discussion of various types of loads that act on bridge superstructures and substructures Discusses the methods of analyses of highway bridge superstructures Includes a detailed discussion of reinforced and prestressed concrete bridges, and slab-steel girder bridges Highway Bridge Superstructure Engineering: LRFD Approaches to Design and Analysis can be used for teaching highway bridge design courses to undergraduate- and graduate-level classes, and as an excellent resource for practicing engineers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Types and Details of Bridge Construction, Vol. 1: Arch Spans: Examples of Constructed Wooden, Combination, Wrought Iron and Steel Arches for Highway and Railroad Bridges; A Collection of Essential Features of Special and Important Work, Illustrating Variety of Design Where no references are given the data has been secured from personal notes, official blue prints or from abstracts of reliable data in private libraries. In all drawings unnecessary detail has been eliminated, and the greatest simplicity has been attempted; in some cases the scale and proportions have been modified to emphasize specific features sometimes relative thickness and clearances have been magnified and rivet spacing assumed or the distinction be tween shop and field driven rivets neglected unless essential to the points involved. Figured dimensions are accurate, and generally the leading proportions are reliable, even if only sketched; but the drawings are never intended for working drawings, being used solely to show the arrangement and relation of different parts, and the special features of details and connections.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1904 edition. Excerpt: ... arch trusses, 43 feet apart at the skewbacks, and 26 feet apart at the crown, with corresponding radial depths of 14J feet and 53 feet. The rise of the lower chord is 103.7 feet, and each top chord carries ten vertical spandrel posts, which support the lattice-girder roadway trusses. The trusses are battered 1:12 and are each divided into 34 panels by radial struts with a solid web plate transverse to the bridge axis and four Z-bars making up I-shaped cross sections. The diagonals in each panel are single channels with reinforced flanges, and are cut to clear at intersections, where they are riveted to flange connection plates. The top chord is of inverted trough section with pairs of angles making T-shaped top flanges for its webs. Reinforcement plates, the width of both angles, are riveted to each flange outside the covered plate which connects the webs. The horizontal flanges of the lower web angles are reinforced and short connection plates are riveted to them and project inwardly to receive the lattice angles and the stiffened transverse diaphragms. The bottom chord is made of two built channels, with the flanges reinforced by plates of equal width with the angles, except the second one on the lower flange, which is twice as wide and projects inwardly, nearly to the center line to receive the lattice angles on its upper side. The cross sections of the top chord are 72, 61.5 and 108 square inches at crown, haunches and skewback, respectively, and the corresponding cross sections of the with wooden blocks. The bridge was calculated for a live load of 90 pounds per square foot of floor surface, and for 30 pounds wind pressure, and the main span weighs about 1,982,000 pounds. bottom chord are 61.5, 72 and 140 square inches.
