Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures - Part 2: Concrete bridges - Design and detailing rules
Also Known As:
Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures - Part 2: Concrete bridges - Design and detailing rules is a standard that complements Part 1 and provides specific guidelines for the structural design of concrete bridges. This standard is applicable to various types of bridges, including road, rail, and footbridges, and covers both reinforced and prestressed concrete.
The standard includes a range of general rules and additional detailed rules that are specific to bridge structures. These rules are designed to ensure the safe and effective design of concrete bridges, considering factors such as loadings, durability, and serviceability requirements. The standard provides guidance on the design and detailing of key components, such as the superstructure, substructure, and foundation of concrete bridges.
By following the guidelines outlined in this standard, engineers and designers can ensure that concrete bridges are structurally sound and meet the necessary safety standards. The standard takes into account various considerations, including the specific design requirements of different types of bridges and the unique challenges associated with bridge construction. It provides a comprehensive framework for the design and detailing of concrete bridges, aiming to ensure their long-term performance and durability.
