Summary

Design of Highway Bridges, 4th Edition offers civil engineering students and practitioners a thorough introduction to the design of medium-and short-span bridges. This Fourth Edition is revised to align with the latest Eighth Edition of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, and offers detailed coverage on the latest construction methods and materials in bridge design, including Accelerated Bridge Construction (ABC), ultra-high performance concrete, and Practical 3-D Rigorous Analysis. A brand-new chapter on Substructures offers design examples for piers, elastometric bearings, and foundations. This introductory guide to bridge design and analysis includes dozens of end-of-chapter worked problems and design examples based on the AASHTO LRFD Specifications. Instructors have access to a solutions manual for all the in-text problems as well as multiple bridge plans including cast-in-place concrete, precast concrete, and steel multi-span via the book’s companion website.
