Fourteen years on from its last edition, Cable Supported Bridges:
Concept and Design, Third Edition, has been significantly updated
with new material and brand new imagery throughout. Since the
appearance of the second edition, the focus on the dynamic response
of cable supported bridges has increased, and this development is
recognised with two new chapters, covering bridge aerodynamics and
other dynamic topics such as pedestrian-induced vibrations and
bridge monitoring. This book concentrates on the synthesis of cable
supported bridges, suspension as well as cable stayed, covering
both design and construction aspects. The emphasis is on the
conceptual design phase where the main features of the bridge will
be determined. Based on comparative analyses with relatively simple
mathematical expressions, the different structural forms are
quantified and preliminary optimization demonstrated. This provides
a first estimate on dimensions of the main load carrying elements
to give in an initial input for mathematical computer models used
in the detailed design phase. Key features: * Describes evolution
and trends within the design and construction of cable supported
bridges * Describes the response of structures to dynamic actions
that have attracted growing attention in recent years * Highlights
features of the different structural components and their
interaction in the entire structural system * Presents simple
mathematical expressions to give a first estimate on dimensions of
the load carrying elements to be used in an initial computer input
This comprehensive coverage of the design and construction of cable
supported bridges provides an invaluable, tried and tested resource
for academics and engineers.
