This book follows the principle of limit state design incorporated in the revised Indian Roads Congress Codes—IRC: 6-2014 and IRC: 112-2011, for the design of different types of prestressed concrete bridges. An integrated design approach involving limit states of strength and serviceability has been followed for the design of various types of bridges covering the slab, tee beam and slab, continuous span, box girder, rigid frame and cable stayed bridges commonly used for national highway crossings. This monograph lays special emphasis on conceptual clarity through theory, design, construction, inspection, maintenance, repairs and rehabilitation of bridges, fortified with numerous design examples and illustrations.Salient featuresConforms to the latest codes of practice IRC: 6–2014; IRC: 112–2011 and IS: 1343–2012Detailed theory, design, construction, inspection, maintenance, repairs and rehabilitation of bridges, well supported by numerous design examples and illustrationsPractice examples supplemented with exhaustive number of references, review and objective questions with detailed illustration for better understandingAssignments to enhance problem-solving skills/practice
