Objective : | To give the student an understanding of the special behaviour and characteristics of design, choice of materials, calculations and construction of bridges. The student should gain professiency in making project design of multi span bridges, working with a footbridge in reinforced concrete and a road bridge in Prestressed concrete. The student that meet the objectives of the course, is at the final exam capable to: • Analyse and describe a chosen bridge project • Analyse and assess different types of bridges, considering the use, physical conditions, structural design, construction methods • Analyse and calculate loads on definite and indefinite road girders • Analyse, assess and calculate bridge structures in reinforced concrete and Prestressed concrete. Motivate the choice. • Explain the group’s cooperation. |
||
Principal Content : | Structural behaviour of bridges and choice of structural materials. Loads on bridges. Bridge, superstructure: Structural design. Lay out of Cross Section. Calculation of internal forces and Bearing Capacity for beams and slabs in reinforced and Prestressed concrete. Bridge, substructure: Columns (with influents of moments and normal forces, M-N-diagrams), foundations and supports. Bridge, equipment: Bearings, expansion joints, isolation. Repair and maintenance of bridges. |
||
Teaching method : | Class teaching and project works. Self tuition. In Project works the students are working in groups of 2-4 persons. In one of the Project works the subject is chosen by the students to be approved by the professor. |
