This book comprehensively studies temperature behaviors of bridges, covering beam, arch, cableтАРstayed, and suspension bridges using analytical, numerical, and field monitoring approaches. For each type of bridge, it not only reports field monitoring results but also presents an integrated heatтАРtransfer and structural analysis framework, significantly enhancing the efficiency of simulating bridge temperature behaviors. Moreover, this book derives simple and general analytical formulas for temperatureтАРinduced deformations of bridges that can be easily adopted by engineers. This standout feature has not been previously studied and reported within academic and engineering societies.
A unique feature of this book is the presentation of 25тАРyear field monitoring data of the Tsing Ma Suspension Bridge, the most extensive field data available, showing the longтАРterm behavior of the bridge. This invaluable data demonstrates the effects of global warming on infrastructure and necessitates the review of current design codes in the context of climate change. Other typical bridges, including the Hong KongтАРZhuhaiтАРMacao Bridge and the Hong Kong Polytechnic University Footbridge, are also used as examples to enhance understanding.
Temperature Behavior of Bridges is an essential resource for postgraduate students, researchers, and engineers seeking to master the temperature behaviors affecting modern bridge infrastructure.
