The favored solution of integral construction and design has produced bridges with fewer joints and bearings that require less maintenance and deliver increased durability. \u003cstrong\u003eBridge Deck Analysis, Second Edition\u003c\/strong\u003e outlines this growing development, and covers the structural analysis of most common bridge forms. It introduces reliability analysis, an emergent method that allows bridge engineers to determine risk when maintaining older or damaged bridges. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplains the Background Theory along with Practical Tools\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book includes practical examples of everyday problems in bridge engineering, and presents real-life examples of the application of reliability analysis. The authors show how reliability analysis can determine structural safety even for bridges which have failed a deterministic assessment. They also update other chapters to reflect the most current advancements towards more sophisticated analysis, and the more widespread use of finite element software.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat's New in this Edition: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncorporates new research on soil-structure interaction\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA new section with examples of how to analyze for the effects of creep\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreatly expands the sections on 3-D brick finite elements\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNow consistent with both Eurocodes and AASHTO standards \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn appropriate resource for senior undergraduates taking an advanced course on bridge engineering, \u003cstrong\u003eBridge Deck Analysis\u003c\/strong\u003e is also suitable for practicing engineers, and other professionals involved in the development of bridge design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eugene J.
