Seismic Design Aids for Nonlinear Pushover Analysis of Reinforced Concrete and Steel Bridges
CRC Press 2011; US$ 119.95Nonlinear static monotonic (pushover) analysis has become a common practice for performance-based seismic bridge design. The popularity of pushover analysis is due to its ability to identify the failure modes and the design limit states of bridge piers and provide the progressive collapse sequence of damaged bridges when subjected to major earthquakes.... more...
Crossing the Hudson
Rutgers University Press 2010; US$ 26.95Crossing the Hudson reveals the often multileveled stories of the river's bridges and tunnels, from timber arch and truss bridges on stone piers to long-span suspension and cantilevered bridges, railroad tunnels, and improvements in iron and steel technology, providing a history of where, why, when, and how these structures were built; the social,... more...

The Design of Modern Steel Bridges
Wiley 2008; US$ 180.00Bridges are great symbols of mankind’s conquest of space. They are a monument to his vision and determination, but these alone are not enough. An appreciation of the mathematical theories underlying bridge design is essential to resist the physical forces of nature and gravity. The object of this book is to explain firstly the nature of the... more...
