Description
This course is designed for students and professionals involved in the design, construction and maintenance of reinforced concrete bridges and prestressed bridges.
Learn how to analyse the stresses and to design girders for the safety and performance.
See how to understand the prestresses losses act in a girder and how to avoid it to loose strengh in its life-time performance.
Take all the materials used in the classes like Mathcads, Cads, Sketches and exclusive pdf documents.
Interact with the best methodology for bridge design in a complete course conceived for being a helping hand source for anybody interested in this amazing subject.
Start first by learning what is becoming the most demanded professionals in the infrastructure design for highways and road engineering.
"Many design considerations for single-span bridges also apply to multi-span bridges because girders or girder segments exist as single-span elements for several stages including fabrication, transportation, erection, and deck pour. In addition, some multi-span bridges or portions thereof are constructed using expansion joints that create boundary conditions of a simply-supported, single-span bridge.
Most multi-span bridges are constructed with simple-span girders made continuous for live-load to increase efficiency and redundancy. This is accomplished by limiting expansion joints, designing deck reinforcement to serve as negative moment reinforcement at interior bents, and providing girder continuity at bents by using continuous cast-in-place deck and/or cast-in-place diaphragms."
