This book describes the underlying behaviour of steel and concrete bridge decks. It shows how complex structures can be analysed with physical reasoning and relatively simple computer models and without complicated mathematics.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'This is the second edition of a book which, since its first publication in 1976, has become one of the most widely used in bridge design offices...The first edition was the best book of its kind. The second edition is better.'
-- New Civil Engineer
'The first edition will be familiar to most bridge engineers, who will only need to be assured that the high standard set there has been maintained.'
-- The Structural Engineer
'In spite of increases in computing power, bridge deck analysis methods have not changed to the same extent, and grillage analysis remains the standard procedure for most structures.'
-- Doug Jenkins, British library publication
