The Suir River Bridge

Introduction
Bridges are prone to harsh environmental conditions, increased traffic and loads among other physical mechanisms. Additionally, deferred maintenance contributes, majorly, to the deterioration of these bridges. For these reasons, therefore, it is important that every existing bridge is constantly subjected to assessments to determine its condition. This is important in order to determine and develop the bridge’s rating regarding the load it can hold and subsequently strengthen it to withstand more load to meet the ever increasing demands. An assessment is also fundamental in determining whether the bridge ought to be posted for the sake of public ...

A bridge is a structure constructed to cross physical barriers such as a valley, body of water, or a road in order to provide passage over the obstacle. Bridges are designed depending on the nature of the landscape there the bridge is to be built, the function of the bridge, funds available to build it and the material used to construct it.
At the level of theoretical engineering the most important geometric development administering the design of the bridge are the vertical and horizontal alignments, the cross section of the bridge, the arrangement of piers for span positioning, height and the pylon/ ...
