Bridges have always been one of the most awe-inspiring marvels of engineering. However, in the last few decades, record-breaking structures have redefined bridge building and taken it to a new level.
Aging infrastructure is a major issue in the U.S. with nearly 50 percent of bridges considered in poor condition—nearly 12 percent are over 80 years old; 42 percent are over 50. Many have high volumes ...
One look at any of the bridges today and you’d think the concept of this engineering marvel might just be about two or three centuries old. That’s not the case, though. Bridges have existed since time ...
The aeroelastic dynamics of long-span bridges encompasses the complex interplay between aerodynamic forces and structural flexibility. As spans exceed one kilometre, wind-induced phenomena such as ...
