17. Bridge Overhang Slabs with Edge Beams : LCCA and Structural Analysis for the Development of New Concepts
Abstract : Bridge edge beams are associated with high life-cycle costs because of the need of maintenance, which also causes traffic disturbances. For this reason, the Swedish Transport Administration started a project to find better solutions. One of the proposals was a design without edge beam. READ MORE
