Description
Captures Current Developments in Bridge Design and MaintenanceRecent research in bridge design and maintenance has focused on the serviceability problems of older bridges with aging joints. The favored solution of integral construction and design has produced bridges with fewer joints and bearings that require less maintenance and deliver increased

"This book is very useful for both teaching and designing purposes."-Dr. Stergios Mitouls, University of Surrey, UK
"A book of this type risks being accused of being superficial to the expert and overly complex to the graduate. This is not the case.... A worthy successor to Hambly's Bridge Deck Behaviour."
-Richard Cooke, Proceedings of the ICE: Bridge Engineering
