  • Systematic Thesis on Network Arches 2013 by Per Tveit, Dr. Ing. Uia, Norway
    Systematic Thesis on Network Arches 2013 By Per Tveit, dr. ing. UiA, Norway Co-authors: B. Brunn, M. Chan, W. Graße, F. Millanes, M. Ortega, R. Presland, R. Lee, L. Šašek, F. Schanack, P. Steere, G. Wollmann, T. Zoli. The author prefers network arches with concrete ties and H profiles in the arch. A network arch of this type normally saves around ⅔ of the steel weight needed for other steel bridges. If there are steel beams in the tie, around 1/3 of the steel weight is likely to be saved. Network arches look nice. Network arches have been designed in many different ways. See chapter H: Network arches built or planned. My main publication: “The Network Arch” can be found on my homepage: http://home.uia.no/pert/ under the button “The Network Arch”. It was started in 2000 and is the result of an organic growth. Thus readers will often have a hard time if they are seeking information on specific items. The present publication should be more readable and should lead interested readers more directly to what they are looking for. This publication can only be found on the internet. It will be updated at least till 2014. There are many references in the text. They are supposed to lead to more information on the same subject. Thus the system of references at the bottom of the page is important. Contents Chapter A is a general chapter. The network arch is an arch bridge where some hangers cross each other at least twice. The hangers give the arches efficient support and high buckling strength.

  • A Study of Various Types of Bridges in India with Historical Perspective
    Journal of Advances and Scholarly Researches in Allied Education Vol. XIV, Issue No. 2, January-2018, ISSN 2230-7540 A Study of Various types of Bridges in India with Historical Perspective Manjeet* Guest Faculty/Resource Person, Department of Civil Engineering, U.I.E.T. M. D. University, Rohtak Abstract – Bridges are structures which are built over an obstacle like valley, water or road with the purpose of making a transportation route. Bridges lay horizontally between some types of supports. These are used for transportation of vertical loads. The important aspect of a bridge is that it does not provide any kind of hindrance to the route beneath it. In the beginning bridges were very simple structures that were built from easily accessible natural resources- wooden logs, stone and dirt. Because of that, they had ability only to span very close distances, and their structural integrity was not high because mortar was not yet invented and rain slowly but constantly dissolved dirt fillings of the bridge. Evolution also came in the field of Bridge construction. They can be classified in many ways, such as on the basis of the construction material used, the style, or the mechanism for holding weight, etc. However, they are most commonly differentiated on the basis of their mechanism for bearing weight. The present paper is an attempt to study the various types of bridges in India namely cantilever bridges, arched bridges, extradosed bridges and cable-styled bridges and their history. Key Words: Bridge, cantilever bridge, arched bridge, extradosed bridge and cable-styled bridge. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - X - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - HISTORY OF INDIAN BRIDGES: Suspension bridge (150m to 2000m span) etc.

    www.ijcrt.org © 2021 IJCRT | Volume 9, Issue 5 May 2021 | ISSN: 2320-2882 A GENERAL STUDY ON TWO MAJOR BRIDGES OF WEST BENGAL 1Chayan Biswas, 2Gourab Biswas, 3Krishnendu Ghosh, 4Saurav Biswas, 5Urmila Bose Neogi 1 Assistant Professor, 2Technical Assistant, 3 4 5 Final Year Under Graduate Student 1 2 3 3 5 Civil Engineering Department 1 3 4 5Global Institute of Management and Technology, Krishnanagar, Nadia (W.B), India. 2 Kingston Polytechnic College, Barasat, 24 Pargana (N) India. Abstract: Bridges are structures that connect two places or two points separated by natural bodies like sea, ocean, hills, etc. These bridges are mainly constructed for different vehicles to move on but even pedestrians can also use. In West Bengal there are many bridges but among them four major ones are: Howrah Bridge, Second Hooghly Bridge, Bally Bridge and Nivedita Bridge. All these four bridges serve as the lifeline for the entire state. This paper deals with the overview and case study of Howrah Bridge and Second Hooghly Bridge; their history, constructional details and materials, impact on social, economical and cultural life, etc. Index Terms- Suspension Type Balanced Cantilever Bridge, Cable Stayed Bridge, Kolkata Port Trust, Hooghly River Bridge Commissioners. I. INTRODUCTION Bridges are one of the most important structures for any state or country. They act as lifelines for the state by connecting one place with other. The economy of the state directly depends on a good transport system and for ensuring good transport system; structures like bridges, flyovers, subways, etc. are required with good road connections. The concept of bridge is very old even it existed in mythological stories like Ramayana, where lord Ram and his banoor armies constructed a bridge made up of stones from India to Sri Lanka for fighting with Ravana, King of Lanka.

  • Wooden and Metal Truss Bridges
    5 WOODEN AND METAL TRUSS BRIDGES Marion Memorial Bridge: This historic postcard view shows the Marion Memorial Bridge (#129, 58- SR002-21.19), a high steel truss bridge that spans the Tennessee River near Jasper in Marion County. Erected by the state in the late 1920s, the bridge replaced a ferry. Until completion of the interstate, this bridge served as a vital link in interstate traffic along U.S. 41 (Author’s Collection). 260 WOODEN AND METAL TRUSS BRIDGES WOODEN AND METAL TRUSS BRIDGES When most people reflect on “historic bridges,” they most often envision covered wooden truss bridges. With its picturesque design, the wooden truss bridge has a near universal appeal. For many years, travelogues and historians alike have documented them and promoted their preservation, more than any other bridge type. What is a truss bridge? A truss is a series of individual members, acting in tension or compression and performing together as a unit. On truss bridges, a tension member is subject to forces that pull outward at its ends. Even on a “wooden” truss bridge, these members are often individual metal pieces such as bars or rods. Compressive forces, which push or compress together, are heavier. The individual members form a triangular pattern. Bridge historian Eric DeLony describes a truss bridge in this manner: A truss is simply an interconnected framework of beams that holds something up. The beams are usually arranged in a repeated triangular pattern, since a triangle cannot be distorted by stress. In a truss bridge two long, usually straight members, known as chords, form the top and bottom; they are connected by a web of vertical posts and diagonals.

  • Chapter 2: Literature Review
    CHAPTER 2: LITERATURE REVIEW The following chapter shall introduce the reader to past, present, and future in bridge engineering. The history of engineering is as old as mankind itself, and it is without doubt that technical progress and the rise of human society are deeply interwoven. Bridges have often played an essential role in technical advancement within Civil Engineering. The development of important types of bridges and the changing use of materials and techniques of construction throughout history will be dealt with in the first part of this chapter. Notably, manifold legends and anecdotes are connected with the bridges of former eras. Studying the history of a bridge from its construction throughout its life will always also reveal a fascinating picture of the particular historical and cultural background. The second part of this chapter introduces the main challenges that the current generation of bridge engineers and following generations will face. Three important areas of interest are identified. These are improvements in design, construction, maintenance, and rehabilitation of a bridge, application of high-performance materials, and creative structural concepts. As technology advances, many new ways of innovation thus open for the bridge engineer. 2.1 HISTORY OF BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION The bridges described in the following sections are examples of their kind. A vast amount of literally thousands of bridges built requires choosing a few exemplary ones to show the main developments in bridge construction throughout the centuries. Any book examining bridges in a historical context will make its own choice, and studying these works can be of great value for understanding of the legacy of bridge engineering.
