Contents:
Preface -- Acknowledgements -- Disclaimer -- Authors -- Introduction -- Bridge loading -- Introduction to bridge analysis -- Integral bridges -- Slab bridge decks : behaviour and modelling -- Application of planar grillage and finite element methods -- Three-dimensional modelling of bridge decks -- Probabilistic assessment of bridge safety -- Case studies -- References -- Appendix A : stiffness of structural members and associated bending moment diagrams -- Appendix B : location of centroid of a section -- Appendix C : derivation of shear area for grillage member representing cell with flange and web distortion -- Index.
Summary: "The second edition of a bestseller, this book combines an explanation of background theory with a step-by-step guide on how to analyse common bridge forms. It includes practical examples of everyday problems in bridge engineerin, particularly useful for senior undergraduates and new engineering graduates. The new edition introduces reliability analysis, an emerging area that allows bridge engineers to assess risk when maintaining older or damaged bridges in service. Other chapters are updated to reflect the trend towards more sophisticated analysis and the more widespread access to Finite Element software"--.
