Design of highway bridges according to the Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code (CHBDC). Comparisons with other bridge codes (e.g., the American Code - AASHTO, the European, the New Zealand, and the British bridge codes). The topics covered include the following: main structural components of highway bridges; types of highway bridges; serviceability and ultimate limit state design requirements; design loads (dead loads, traffic loads, seismic loads, and wind loads); load combinations; code specifications for loading due to traffic (design lane, characteristics of design truck, positions of design truck on bridge, etc.); dynamic effects due to traffic loads; practical approaches specified in CHBDC for determining forces and deflections in structural embers; principles of capacity design in highway bridges. This course is equivalent to CIVJ 5310 at Carleton University.
