Description
This text provides a systematic study of bridge substructure and foundation elements. It presents explicit methods of analysis, design and detailing, combined with case studies. It aims to help engineers understand the structural consequences of settlement and movement, and evaluate alternatives to deep foundation systems.It reflects the distinct evolution in bridge design concepts, theories and analysis methods that has recently taken place.
