Aerodynamic stability of bridges
The aerodynamic characteristics of bridge sections can be determined by simple wind-tunnel tests. These characteristics can then be used to determine the lift force and overturning moment on any bridge section without large scale model tests. Also, the slope of the lift and torque curves obtained …

Aerodynamic stability of bridges
… on the Aerodynamic Stability of Suspension Bridges. Wind has wrecked suspension bridges for over a century but the underlying cause, an increasing harmonic amplitude due to wind, has been ignored until recently. For many years bridges have been designed to withstand horizontal wind pressure, …

Arch bridges: Design - Construction - Perception
The arch bridges have an historical development, that is rooted in their ancient tradition, yet are also very successful to this day, a rediscovery of the earliest arched forms can be seen in the most recent innovations. After millennia of masonry arch bridges and almost two centuries of relentless …

Three bridges and a river
… thesis proposes the introduction of a suite of bridges, a sequence of filtering devices which through serving the purpose of connecting the banks of the river, incorporate secondary functions--cultural, educational or recreational, following the course of the river, addressing the varying …

Aerodynamic stability of oscillating bridges
The purpose of this investigation was to observe the action of the various models oscillating torsionally in a fluid stream of uniform velocity. From static tests and pressure distribution examinations predictions of vertical and torsional stability trends have been made and approximate aerodynamic …

Bridges the celebration of passage
… architectural appearance and the evolution of bridges. It is to show the intentions and consequent symbols of civilizations who built bridges. The paper also investigates bridge types, foundations and falsework.

Valuable bridges : cable-stayed bridges and value engineering in American civil engineering culture, 1969-1979
A history and theory of cable-stayed bridges in the context of a cultural discourse on civil construction projects' value, this thesis studies the significance of cable-stayed bridge designs to 'value engineering' objectives for major highway bridge projects of the 1970s. This study of preliminary …

Glulam Timber Bridges for Local Roads
<p>The most common type of bridges on South Dakota (SD) local roads are prestressed precast double-tee bridges. Currently, there is only one double-tee girder manufacturer in South Dakota (SD). In an attempt to provide more bridge type selection options for local governments, a study was performed …
