Bridges play important role in modern infrastructural system. This
book provides an up-to-date overview of the field of bridge
engineering, as well as the recent significant contributions to the
process of making rational decisions in bridge design, assessment
and monitoring and resources optimization deployment for the
purpose of enhancing the welfare of society. Tang specifies the
purposes and requirements of the conceptual bridge design,
considering bridge types, basic elements, structural systems and
load conditions. Cremona and Poulin propose an assessment procedure
for existing bridges. Kallias et al. develop a framework for the
performance assessment of metallic bridges under atmospheric
exposure by integrating coating deterioration and corrosion
modelling. Soriano et al. employ a simplified approach to estimate
the maximum traffic load effect on a highway bridge and compare the
results with other approaches based on on-site weigh-in-motion
data. Akiyama et al. propose a method for reliability-based
durability design and service life assessment of reinforced
concrete deck slab of jetty structures. Chen et al. propose a
meso-scale model to simulate the uniform and pitting corrosion of
rebar in concrete and to obtain the crack patterns of the concrete
with different rebar arrangements. Ruan et al. present a traffic
load model for long span multi-pylon cable- stayed bridges. Khuc
and Catbas implement a non-target vision- based method for the
measurement of both static and dynamic displacements time
histories. Finally, Cruz presents the career of the outstanding
bridge engineer Edgar Cardoso in the fields of bridge design and
experimental analysis. The book serves as a valuable reference to
all concerned with bridge structure and infrastructure systems,
including students, researchers, engineers, consultants and
contractors from all areas sections of bridge engineering. The
chapters originally published as a special issue in Structure and
Infrastructure Engineering.
