This book provides a guide to movement and restraint in bridges for bridge engineers and will enable them to draw up design calculations and specifications for effective installation, and satisfactory service and durability of bearings and joints. It has been fully revised and updated in line with current codes and design practice, modern developments and products.
Furthermore, This guide will enable bridge ingineers to draw up design calculations and specifications for the effective installation, service and durability of bearings and expansion joints. It discusses the materials and techniques available for accommodating movement in bridges and is fully revised and updated in line wiht current codes anddesign practice. Bearings and expansion joints probalbly cause more difficulties fro the bridge engineer than any other part detailing and careful installation of the bearings, drainage and expansion joints. This book is written to help the practising bridge engineer to understand the principles of movement of bridge structures and to achieve sound designs, including accessibility for inspection and maintenance. The book includes over 150 detailed illustrations of joints, bearings and successful bridges around the world as well as design charts and tables. It is a revised, expanded and updated version of The Theory and Practice of Bearings and Expansion Joints for Bridges, originally written by the author and published by the Cement and Concrete Association in 1971 . David Lee has been responsible for bridge and structural design, together withe supervision of construction in many parts of the world, for the last 40 years, with the Maunsell Group of consulting engineers. He takes an active role in La Federation Internationale de la Precontrainte, winning the FIP madal in 1974, and the International Asociation of Bridge and Structural Engineering (IABSE). He is a Past President of The Institution of Sturctural Engineers and a Visiting Professor at the Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine, London, UK. He is also a Fellow of The Royal Academy of Enginering and received the CBE in 1989 for services to civil engineering.
