- Synopsis:
-
This module offers an overview of bridge elements, construction techniques, bridge loading an analysis. After the introduction and differentiation of basis static systems, the bridge nomenclature is discussed to equip the student with the necessary terminology, the superstructure is discussed from perspective of concrete and steel as the main materials. Bridge loading for traffic loads and analysis are illustrated in detail with the support of influence lines. Necessary care is devoted the the construction techniques and analysis of different basic bridge types.
