Bridges and transmission line structures

This volume on Bridges and Transmission Line Structures contains papers from ten sessions and one plenary session of the 1987 ASCE Structures Congress. Eight sessions cover bridges. A general session on various aspects of bridge design and safety is followed by separate sessions on steel bridges, concrete bridges, and long-span bridges. The plenary session on the dynamics of cable-stayed bridges is accompanied by separate sessions on the aerodynamics of bridges and the dynamic behavior of cable-stayed bridges. A separate session on timber bridges includes timber decks. The topics cover a broad range including LRFD bridge design, rehabilitation of bridges, design of bridge piers, wind-buffeting of bridges, wind-tunnel investigation of bridges, and ship collision criteria. Two sessions are concerned with transmission line structures, both loadings and design.
