Stress Ribbon and Cable-Supported Pedestrian Bridges considers how
slender concrete decks are used in the design of suspension and
cable stayed structures. It looks at their characteristic feature -
their rigidity, which is mainly given by the tension stiffness of
prestressed concrete decking, so much so that movement caused by
pedestrians or wind does not register as discomfort by users.
Starting with a brief history this book describes structural types,
addresses general design criteria, current technology, static and
dynamic analysis and discusses the results of the static and
dynamic loading tests. Illustrated throughout, Stress Ribbon and
Cable-Supported Pedestrian Bridges provides numerous international
examples and case studies of outstanding structures. This new
edition has been fully updated to bring text in to line with
Eurocodes and includes new examples and case studies to showcase
the advances in design techniques and testing.
