Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book compares a steel bridge to a reinforced concrete one, both designed for the same site. An existing reinforced concrete bridge is investigated and an appropriate steel alternative is designed. The durability, cost, and appearance of the two are then compared. Steel bridges typically have a shorter life (25 years vs. 75 years for concrete) and require more maintenance, but are cheaper to build initially. However, when maintenance costs are factored into the lifetime value, the concrete bridge is a more cost-effective option. While the steel bridge is more aesthetically pleasing, the concrete bridge is still visually appealing and less prone to problems resulting from poor construction. The author concludes that concrete bridges are a better choice for this type of highway span, especially when durability and cost are key considerations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781528108331_0
