DESCRIPTION:
Tonia's Bridge Engineering: Design, Rehabilitation, and Maintenance of Modern Highway Bridges fully integrates the resources you need to master the entire bridge-design process. From steel and reinforced concrete design, to highway layout and basic geometrics, to geotechnical engineering and hydraulics, Demetrios E. Design, rehabilitate, and maintain modern highway bridges. Written with unusual clarity--and packed with timely design examples and case studies plus eye-opening sidebars and graphics--it shows you how to: understand bridge structures, functions, types, and applications; design superstructures and substructures for maximum maintainability; design highway components--approach pavements and slabs, structure geometrics a

Not a typical textbook I am a bridge engineer, and I was in the market for some textbooks that I could use for references at work. I purchased this book and a few others. It is a comprehensive text covering a broad range of topics related to bridge engineering, far more than your typical textbook. However, it really just s. "I can see four shooting stars" according to A Customer. This book is interesting and factual. You learn so much about bridges including how they work. If you're only going to buy 1 book this summer make it this one.. "Very fun to read" according to A Customer. As a structural engineering student, I found this book very fun to read. That is different from all the books I have read about bridge engineering.
