The Bridge Engineering Handbook is a unique, comprehensive, and the state-of-the-art reference work and resource book covering the major areas of bridge engineering with the theme “ ridge to the Twenty-First Century.” It has been written with practicing bridge and structural engineers in mind. The ideal reader will be an M.S.-level structural and bridge engineer with a need for a single reference source to keep abreast of new development and the state-of-the-practice, as well as review standard practices.
The areas of bridge engineering include planning, analysis and design, construction, maintenance and rehabilitation. To provide engineers a well organized and user-friendly, easy to follow resource, the handbook is divided and printed into four Volumes: I Superstructure Design, II Substructure Design, III Seismic Design, and IV Construction and Maintenance.
Volume IV Construction and Maintenance contains constructions of steel and concrete bridges, substructures of major overwater bridges, construction inspections, construction control for cable-stayed bridges, maintenance inspection and rating, strengthening and rehabilitation.
The handbook stresses professional applications and practical solutions. Emphasis has been placed on ready-to-use materials. It contains many formulas and tables that give immediate answers to questions arising from practical works. It describes the basic concepts and assumptions omitting the derivations of formulas and theories. It covers traditional and new, innovative practices. An overview of the structure, organization, and content of the book can be seen by examining the table of contents presented at the beginning of the volume while an in-depth view of a particular subject can be seen by examining the individual table of contents preceding each chapter. References at the end of each chapter can be consulted for more detailed studies.
The chapters have been written by many internationally known authors in different countries covering bridge engineering practices, and research and development in North America, Europe, and Pacific Rim countries. This handbook may provide a glimpse of rapid global economy trend in recent years toward international outsourcing of practice and competition of all dimensions of engineering. In general, the handbook is aimed at the needs of practicing engineers, but materials may be re-organized to accommodate several bridge courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels. The book may also be used as a survey of the practice of bridge engineering around the world.
