Bridge design, construction & maintenance: Insights and best practices into a rapidly changing sector

Bridges in Europe are a critical and much-loved part of the continent’s infrastructure and play a huge role in keeping people connected and ensuring that goods are transported from A to B as quickly and efficiently as possible. But Europe’s bridges are aging. With most having been built between the 1950s and 1970s, they are now struggling to cope under increasingly extreme conditions. 

 Taking this context into account, this white paper discusses the latest insights and best practices from the bridge sector as well as exploring how design engineers, contractors and operators are using premium bolting and engineering solutions to overcome challenges when designing, building and maintaining some of the most exciting bridges in the last decade. 

Interesting topics in the paper include:

  • The current context of the European bridge sector.
  • An overview of different bridge types.
  • Comparing materials: steel and concrete
  • Comparing joining methods: welding and bolting. 
  • Tradition vs innovation in the bridge sector. 
  • European bridge design and national characteristics.
  • Case studies of major bridge projects in the last decade.

WHITEPAPER: BRIDGE DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE

In Europe, many bridges are part of an aging infrastructure built in the mid-20th century. As a result, existing bridges must be maintained, and new ones built to accommodate increasing traffic. Critical considerations influencing the choice of joining methods when building and maintaining bridges are history, regional preferences, and bridge type.
