The design of bridges is a unique art as they are expected to carry
moving loads compared to the statically loaded structures. Mere
training in code procedures and special design skills are
inadequate for successful professional practice. Thorough
understanding of basic concepts and response characteristics of
various structural elements is necessary for professional bridge
designers. This book encompasses the manual and computer aided
design of prestressed concrete bridges. Besides explaining the
detailed design procedures for designing various components of
prestressed concrete girder bridge; this book also focuses on the
basic concepts and definitions of various bridge components. The
theory of prestressing with its merits and demerits is also
discussed in detail. The manual design procedure of different
members of prestressed concrete bridges is explained in a
comprehensive and step-by-step manner. Illustrations are used to
explain the computer aided design method. The design and analysis
results are compared in the end and discussions are made in order
to explain the reasons for possible discrepancies.
