About this product

Product Information

The up-to-date guide to applying theory and specifications to real-world highway bridge design Design of Highway Bridges, Second Edition offers detailed coverage of engineering basics for the design of short- and medium-span bridges. Based on the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, it is an excellent engineering resource. This updated edition features: Expanded coverage of structural analysis, including axle and lane loads, along with new numerical analytic methods and approaches Dozens of worked problems, primarily in Customary U.S. units, that allow techniques to be applied to real-world problems and design specifications Revised AASHTO steel bridge design guidelines that reflect the simplified approach for plate girder bridges The latest information on concrete bridges, including new minimum reinforcement requirements, and unbonded tendon stress at ultimate and losses for prestressed concrete girders Information on key bridge types, selection principles, and aesthetic issues Problems and selected references for further study And more From gaining quick familiarity with the AASHTO LRFD specifications to seeking broader guidance on highway bridge design-this is the one-stop, ready reference that puts information at your fingertips.

  • GREAT NEW EDITION!!

    THE resourse for bridge design engineers. Based on 2004 AASHTO LRFD CODE. This edition has problems sets at the end of each chapter. ALSO it is in U.S. English units which is great since the Structural PE exam (in 2008)is all in US standard units as well as 2004 AASHTO CODE. Lots of clear and step by step examples.

  • for every engineer must have in home

    It,s a great book. do not hesitate in buying it. it is usefuk of studend and Profesional Engineer
