Design & Stability Analysis of Circular Open Well Bridges Foundations (Paperback)

Paperback. Design and Stability Analysis of Circular Open Well Foundations of River Bridges offers an in depth and practical insight into open well foundations in bridge engineering, in particular, in alluvial river sites. The book combines the basic concepts, design techniques, hydraulic techniques and stability analysis techniques required to design a foundation that is safe and economical.Combining theory and practice, the book discusses soil mechanics, scour and uplift behaviour, structural design principles, and construction practices of circular wells. It emphasises the current methods of analysis, such as numerical modelling, load test, and performance test in different hydraulic and geotechnical conditions.The book is written in an easily understandable format and, therefore is a useful resource to civil engineering students, researchers, engineers working on bridge projects, as well as consultants and professionals dealing with foundation design and river engineering projects. It strives to uphold sound infrastructural growth with sound design practices and informed engineering judgement. This item is printed on demand.
