About the Book

Bridges represent key links in all road and railway systems, and proper management of these structures is vital. Yet inspections of bridges continue to reveal an alarming deterioration in many bridges, due to poor design detailing, ageing, corrosion caused by de-icing salts, accidental damage and overload from increasing weight and volume of traffic. Good bridge management is essential in order to plan, design, build and maintain a nation's stock of bridges. This book focuses on ways of limiting the whole life-cost of new bridges and on extending the life of old bridges. It presents successful approaches and strategies which have been used around the world to investigate, rehabilitate and strengthen bridges which are deteriorating or failing. Over 100 papers have been selected for inclusion from those presented at the Third International Conference on Bridge Managment held at the University of Surrey, Guildford, UK in April 1996
