Simple Innovative Comparison of Costs Between Tied-Arch Bridge and Cable-Stayed Bridge
MATEC Web of Conferences 258, 02015 (2019) https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/20192 5802015 SCESCM 20 18 Simple innovative comparison of costs between tied-arch bridge and cable-stayed bridge Järvenpää Esko1,*, Quach Thanh Tung2 1WSP Finland, Oulu, Finland 2WSP Finland, Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam Abstract. The proposed paper compares tied-arch bridge alternatives and cable-stayed bridge alternatives based on needed load-bearing construction material amounts in the superstructure. The comparisons are prepared between four tied arch bridge solutions and four cable-stayed bridge solutions of the same span lengths. The sum of the span lengths is 300 m. The rise of arch as well as the height of pylon and cable arrangements follow optimal dimensions. The theoretic optimum rise of tied-arch for minimum material amount is higher than traditionally used for aesthetic reason. The optimum rise for minimum material amount parabolic arch is shown in the paper. The mathematical solution uses axial force index method presented in the paper. For the tied-arches the span-rise-ration of 3 is used. The hangers of the tied-arches are vertical-The tied-arches are calculated by numeric iteration method in order to get moment-less arch. The arches are designed as constant stress arch. The area and the weight of the cross section follow the compression force in the arch. In addition the self-weight of the suspender cables are included in the calculation. The influence of traffic loads are calculated by using a separate FEM program. It is concluded that tied-arch is a competitive alternative to cable-stayed bridge especially when asymmetric bridge spans are considered. -

Bold are defined in call- out boxes. TARGET GRADE LEVEL: • Teacher-only text Fourth grade instruction, adaptable to higher levels as indicated with Italics. desired in the subjects of Social Studies and Engineering. FOCUS: In Part I, students learn about history of the Bayonne Bridge including the many engineering challenges encountered during the project and the people who helped overcome those challenges. In Part II, students learn engineering concepts to understand how bridges stay up and use these concepts to complete activities on bridge design before applying these concepts to theorize how the Bayonne Bridge works.

Submission Instructions Is One Part of the Project Design Contracting Documents, Which Also Includes the Statement of Work and VA and NCA Design Criteria
A/E Submission Requirements for National Cemetery Projects Program Guide PG 18-15 Volume D December 2011 FOREWORD This document states the minimum requirements for each submission in the production of VA Master Plans, Schematic Design, Design Development, Construction Documents, and Record Documents for National Cemetery Projects. It will give VA reviewers and Architects and Engineers a clear understanding of the minimum submission requirements of the A/E, including level of detail expected for each stage of design, itemized for each discipline. The A/E Submission Instructions is one part of the project design contracting documents, which also includes the Statement of Work and VA and NCA design criteria. This guide contains the vast majority of submission requirements for each discipline and the expected level of development at each phase of a national cemetery design project. It is not intended to be project specific. Not all disciplines will be involved in all projects. Therefore it is recommended that the project specific Statement of Work be the starting point for determining the actual submission requirements for each project. This document does not relieve A/E firms of their professional responsibility to produce a correct, complete, and fully coordinated set of construction documents for the successful completion of a project.
