Further, a unique chapter on structural health monitoring (SHM) will help bridge engineers determine the actual load carrying capacities of bridges, as opposed to their perceived analytical capacities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chapter addressing structures made with fibre-reinforced polymers will allow engineers to design highly durable, economical and sustainable structures. This chapter also provides guidance on rehabilitating deteriorated structures with these new materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book also deals with the philosophy of bridge design without resorting to complex equations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdditional material to this book can be downloaded from http:\/\/extras.springer.com\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2018-02-21\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319359724\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-17843-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 425\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49941739602060,"sku":"9783319359724","price":143.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319359724.jpg?v=1779062158","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783319359724","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
