In recent years, bridge engineers and researchers are
increasingly turning to the finite element method for the design of
Steel and Steel-Concrete Composite Bridges. However, the complexity
of the method has made the transition slow. Based on twenty years
of experience, Finite Element Analysis and Design of Steel and
Steel-Concrete Composite Bridges provides structural engineers and
researchers with detailed modeling techniques for creating robust
design models. The book s seven chapters begin with an overview of
the various forms of modern steel and steel concrete composite
bridges as well as current design codes. This is followed by
self-contained chapters concerning: nonlinear material behavior of
the bridge components, applied loads and stability of steel and
steel concrete composite bridges, and design of steel and steel
concrete composite bridge components.
Constitutive models for construction materials including
material non-linearity and geometric non-linearity.
The mechanical approachincludingproblem setup, strain energy,
external energy and potential energy), mathematics behind the

Commonly available finite elements codes for the design of steel
bridges.
