Bridges; Building construction & materials

Segmental concrete bridges have become one of the main options for major transportation projects world-wide. They offer expedited construction with minimal traffic disruption, lower life cycle costs, appealing aesthetics and adaptability to a curved roadway alignment. The literature is focused on construction, so this fills the need for a design-oriented book for less experienced bridge engineers and for senior university students.

It presents comprehensive theory, design and key construction methods, with a simple design example based on the AASHTO LRFD Design Specifications for each of the main bridge types. It outlines design techniques and relationships between analytical methods, specifications, theory, design, construction and practice. It combines mathematics and engineering mechanics with the authors’ design and teaching experience.

He has been engaged in bridge engineering for over 40 years and has published numerous papers and books on bridge design, dynamic and stability analysis, practical analysis methods, and capacity evaluations of different types of bridges, including box girder, curved girder, cable-stayed, truss, and arch bridges. He has been extensively involved in the design, analysis, and construction of different types of long span and complex bridges, including span-by-span constructed, precast and cast-in-place cantilever segmental bridges, cable-stayed bridges, and arch bridges. He is an editor/board member of Journal of Structural Engineering International, IABSE and former associate editor of Journal of Bridge Engineering, ASCE. Bo Hu, Ph.D., P.E., P.Eng., is an associate technical director in the Edmonton office of COWI. He obtained his Ph.D. in civil engineering from the University of Delaware in 2006. He has been engaged in bridge engineering for 20 years with research and design experiences in various bridge types, seismic behaviors of bridge structures, seismic design methodology for bridge structures, and development of innovative structures. He is a professional engineer in the United States and Canada and has been playing leading technical and project roles in a variety of large bridge projects in North America, including segmental concrete girder bridges, extradosed concrete segmental bridges, and cable-stayed concrete segmental bridges.

Reviews for Concrete Segmental Bridges: Theory, Design, and Construction to AASHTO LRFD Specifications

'Authors Dongzhour Huang and Bo Hu should be commended for their detailed tome. . . . The textbook is sure to become a useful reference for both students and practicing engineers due to its substantial breadth of information, from basic engineering principles to detailed bridge design examples.'
