engineering, and thoroughly explains the concepts and practical
applications surrounding the subject. Published in five books:
Fundamentals, Superstructure Design, Substructure Design, Seismic
Design, and Construction and Maintenance, this new edition provides
numerous worked-out examples that give readers step-by-step design
procedures, includes contributions by leading experts from around
the world in their respective areas of bridge engineering, contains
26 completely new chapters, and updates most other chapters. It
offers design concepts, specifications, and practice, as well as
the various types of bridges. The text includes over 2,500 tables,
charts, illustrations, and photos. The book covers new, innovative

Bridges and Cast-In-Place Post-Tensioned Prestressed Concrete
Girder Bridges Expands the chapter on Bridge Decks and Approach
Slabs and divides it into two chapters: Concrete Decks and Approach
Slabs Rewrites seven chapters: Segmental Concrete Bridges,
Composite Steel I-Girder Bridges, Composite Steel Box Girder
Bridges, Arch Bridges, Cable-Stayed Bridges, Orthotropic Steel
Decks, and Railings This text is an ideal reference for practicing
