The physics of bridges and structures: resisting forces

La physique des ponts et structures : résister aux forces

IN BRIEF Types of forces acting on bridges: gravitational, compressive, tensile, etc. Stability of structures is essential for safety Symmetrical design for better force distribution Importance of material strength in construction Weight load and ground reinforcement to prevent sinking Assessment of acceptable deformations and financial costs Dynamics of bridges to ensure resistance to natural and … Read more
