Stress Ribbon and Cable-Supported Pedestrian Bridges considers how slender concrete decks are used in the design of suspension and cable stayed structures. It looks at their characteristic feature – their rigidity, which is mainly given by the tension stiffness of prestressed concrete decking, so much so that movement caused by pedestrians or wind does not register as discomfort by users. Starting with a brief history this book describes structural types, addresses general design criteria, current technology, static and dynamic analysis and discusses the results of the static and dynamic loading tests. This new edition has been fully updated to bring text in to line with Eurocodes and includes new examples and case studies to showcase the advances in design techniques and testing.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Stress Ribbon and Cable-supported Pedestrian Bridges provides a definitive practical guide to the skills, knowledge and understanding required by the practising engineer.'Stress ribbon bridges' is the term used to describe structures formed by a very slender concrete deck in the shape of a catenary. They can be designed with one or more spans and are characterized by successive and complementary smooth curves. These curves blend into the natural environment and their forms; the most simple and basic of structural solutions, clearly articulate the flow of internal forces which can be erected without undue pressure on the environment.This new and fully updated edition of Stress Ribbon and Cable-supported Pedestrian Bridges examines all aspects of the design of these structures. Starting with a brief history, the title describes structural types, addresses general design criteria, current technology, static and dynamic analysis and discusses the results of the static and dynamic loading tests. Illustrated throughout, Stress Ribbon and Cable-supported Pedestrian Bridges provides the latest examples of outstanding structures and fully revised to bring the text in to line with the Eurocodes.Stress Ribbon and Cable-supported Pedestrian Bridges:provides a definitive practical guide to stress ribbon and cable-supported bridgesfocuses on the very latest examples of these structures with international case studiesincludes over 500 illustrations to complement the textincorporates the latest Eurocodesfeatures the most up to date technology.Stress Ribbon and Cable-supported Pedestrian Bridges is essential reading to practising engineers who wish to understand the premises upon which the rules are based and researchers who wish to develop the subject further and students who wish to delve into the background behind the current loading rules.
