This comprehensive and up-to-date reference
work and resource book covers state-of-the-art and state-of-the-practice
for bridge engineering worldwide. Countries covered include Canada and
the United States in North America; Argentina and Brazil in South
America; Bosnia, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland,
France, Greece, Macedonia, Poland, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, and Ukraine
in the European continent; China, Indonesia, Japan, Chinese Taipei, and
Thailand in Asia; and Egypt, Iran, and Turkey in the Middle East.
The book examines the use of different materials for each region, including stone, timber, concrete, steel, and composite. It examines various bridge types, including slab, girder, segmental, truss, arch, suspension, and cable-stayed. A color insert illustrates select landmark bridges. It also presents ten benchmark comparisons for highway composite girder design from different countries; the highest bridges; the top 100 longest bridges, and the top 20 longest bridge spans for various bridge types including suspension, cable-stayed, extradosed, arch, girder, movable bridges (vertical lift, swing, and bascule), floating, stress ribbon, and timber; and bridge construction methods.
