Bridge Engineering Handbook: Substructure Design

The second edition of this book, one of a series of five - Fundamentals, Superstructure Design, Substructure Design, Seismic Design, and Construction and Maintenance - highlights bridge engineering specimens from around the world, contains detailed information on bridge engineering, and explains the concepts and practical applications surrounding the subject. Substructure design, including bearings, towers, abutments, foundations, and others, are covered. Examples with step-by-step design procedures are presented. New chapters covering landslide design considerations, bridge scour design and protection are contained here. Rehabilitation, retrofit, and maintenance are explored; and seismic design and building materials are examined.
