Bridge Engineering Handbook Five Volume Set: Handbook

Bridge Engineering Handbook Five Volume Set: Handbook by Dr. Wai-Fah Chen is a research professor of civil engineering at the University of Hawaii. He earned his BS in civil engineering from the National Cheng-Kung University, Taiwan, in 1959, MS in structural engineering from Lehigh University in 1963, and also did PhD in solid mechanics from Brown University in 1966.

His interests include constitutive modeling of engineering materials, soil and also in concrete plasticity, structural connections, and structural stability too, and he has received several national engineering awards.

In 1995, he was elected to the U.S. National Academy of Engineering. Dr. Chen has authored and coauthored more than 20 engineering books and also 500 technical papers. He is editor-in-chief for the Civil Engineering Handbook, the Handbook of Structural Engineering, the Earthquake Engineering Handbook, and the Handbook of International Bridge Engineering (CRC Press).

 

Dr. Lian Duan is a senior bridge engineer and structural steel committee chair with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). He earned his diploma in civil engineering in 1975, MS in structural engineering in 1981 from Taiyuan University of

 

 

 

Technology, China, and PhD in structural engineering from Purdue University in 1990. His interests include inelastic behavior of reinforced concrete and steel structures, structural stability, seismic bridge analysis, and design. Dr. Duan has authored and coauthored more than 70 papers, chapters, and reports, and is the coeditor of the Handbook of International Bridge Engineering (CRC Press). He has received several awards, including the prestigious 2001 Arthur M. Wellington Prize from the American Society of Civil Engineers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Over 140 experts, 14 countries, and 89 chapters are represented in the second edition of the Bridge Engineering Handbook. This extensive collection highlights bridge engineering specimens from around the world, contains detailed information on bridge engineering, and thoroughly explains the concepts and practical applications surrounding the subject.

 

 

The second book, Superstructure Design, contains 19 chapters, and covers information on how to design all types of bridges.

What’s New in the Second Edition:

  • Includes two new chapters: Extradosed Bridges and also Stress Ribbon Pedestrian Bridges
  • Updates the Prestressed Concrete Girder Bridges chapter and also rewrites it as two chapters! Precast/Pretensioned Concrete Girder Bridges and also Cast-In-Place Post-Tensioned Prestressed Concrete Girder Bridges
  • Expands the chapter on Bridge Decks and Approach Slabs and also divides it into two chapters: Concrete Decks and Approach Slabs
  • Rewrites seven chapters! Segmental Concrete Bridges, Composite Steel I-Girder Bridges, Composite Steel Box Girder Bridges! Arch Bridges, Cable-Stayed Bridges, Orthotropic Steel Decks, and also the Railings

This text is an ideal reference for practicing bridge engineers and also the consultants (design, construction, maintenance), and can also be used as a reference for students in bridge engineering courses.

Ask anyone with a big book collection, and also they’ll tell you moving them was the hardest part of the move. Take down a bookshelf and also there’s often no less than four! Possibly up to eight, good Lord if it’s over ten, boxes of dense material. This is the single greatest argument for welcoming ebooks moreover! Abandoning print and having your PDF! On display instead doesn’t sound like such a bad idea while carrying book box number seven to the car.
