Book Description
Over 140 experts, 14 countries, and 89 chapters are represented in the second edition of the Bridge Engineering Handbook. This extensive collection highlights bridge engineering specimens from around the world, contains detailed information on bridge engineering, and thoroughly explains the concepts and practical applications surrounding the subject. Published in five books: Fundamentals, Superstructure Design, Substructure Design, Seismic Design, and Construction and Maintenance, this new edition provides numerous worked-out examples that give readers step-by-step design procedures, includes contributions by leading experts from around the world in their respective areas of bridge engineering, contains 26 completely new chapters, and updates most other chapters. It offers design concepts, specifications, and practice, as well as the various types of bridges. The text includes over 2,500 tables, charts, illustrations, and photos. The book covers new, innovative and traditional methods and practices; explores rehabilitation, retrofit, and maintenance; and examines seismic design and building materials. The second book, Superstructure Design, contains 19 chapters, and covers information on how to design all types of bridges. What’s New in the Second Edition: Includes two new chapters: Extradosed Bridges and Stress Ribbon Pedestrian Bridges Updates the Prestressed Concrete Girder Bridges chapter and rewrites it as two chapters: Precast/Pretensioned Concrete Girder Bridges and Cast-In-Place Post-Tensioned Prestressed Concrete Girder Bridges Expands the chapter on Bridge Decks and Approach Slabs and divides it into two chapters: Concrete Decks and Approach Slabs Rewrites seven chapters: Segmental Concrete Bridges, Composite Steel I-Girder Bridges, Composite Steel Box Girder Bridges, Arch Bridges, Cable-Stayed Bridges, Orthotropic Steel Decks, and Railings This text is an ideal reference for practicing bridge engineers and consultants (design, construction, maintenance), and can also be used as a reference for students in bridge engineering courses.

The papers in this volume were selected for presentation at the 15th Annual InternationalComputing and CombinatoricsConference (COCOON 2009), held during July 13-15, 2009 in Niagara Falls, New York, USA. Previous meetings of this conference were held in Xian (1995), Hong Kong (1996), Shanghai (1997), Taipei(1998), Tokyo(1999), Sydney(2000), Guilin(2001), Singapore(2002), Big Sky (2003), Jeju Island (2004), Kunming (2005), Taipei (2006), Alberta (2007), and Dalian (2008). In response to the Call for Papers, 125 extended abstracts (not counting withdrawn papers) were submitted from 28 countries and regions, of which 51 were accepted. Authors of the submitted papers were from Cyprus (1), The Netherlands (1), Bulgaria (1), Israel (1), Vietnam (2), Finland (1), Puerto Rico (2), Australia (4), Norway (4), Portugal (1) Spain (2), France (16), Republic of Korea(3), Singapore(2), Italy(6), Iran, (4), Greece(7), Poland(4), Switzerland (8), Hong Kong (10), UK (12), India (7), Taiwan (18), Canada (23), China (19), Japan (39), Germany (44), and the USA (77). The submitted papers were evaluated by an international Technical P- gram Committee (TPC) consisting of Srinivas Aluru (Iowa State University, USA), Lars Arge (University of Aarhus, Denmark), Vikraman Arvind (Ins- tute of Mathematical Sciences, India), James Aspnes (Yale University, USA), Mikhail Atallah (Purdue University, USA), Gill Barequet (Technion - Israel - stitute of Technology, Israel), Michael Brudno (University of Toronto, Canada), Jianer Chen (Texas A & M, USA), Bhaskar DasGupta (University of Illinois at Chicago, USA), Anupam Gupta (Carnegie Mellon University, USA), Lane A.
