The ICE Manual of Bridge Engineering is the industry's leading guide to the engineering of all types of bridges. This book has been written by a team of leading experts and contains all of the key topics that any bridge engineer needs to refer to. All aspects from bridge design, materials and management of bridges to loadings, construction and accessories such as expansion joints, parapets and bearings are covered in this manual. Bridge inspections and economic and sustainable maintenance are also included. Fully updated to a third edition, this book features new chapters on bridge aesthetics and temporary works. It is aligned with the guidance given in the Eurocodes. It will become your go-to authority on all aspects of bridge design, construction and management.
Fully illustrated and with many examples of best practice, this book features chapters on
The ICE Manual of Bridge Engineering will be of interest to all practitioners involved in any aspect of the analysis, design, construction, repair, inspection, maintenance, and refurbishment of bridges. It will also appeal to students at university or college, contractors, government agencies and research centres.
Book reviews
The third edition of the ICE Manual of Bridge Engineering provides comprehensive guidance across the whole lifecycle of a bridge asset and is written by expert practitioners for other practitioners, drawing on their vast combined experience. It achieves a great balance between covering the underpinning theory and the details that actually work well in practice. In addition to covering the key aspects of structural design across a breadth of materials and construction types, much attention is paid to the smaller details which often dictate whether or not a bridge performs well in service, such as bearings, joints and water management. New sections introduced in this latest edition on aesthetics and design for construction, including interaction with temporary works, provide much needed guidance on ensuring designs provide social value and are safe and economic to construct. I highly commend this publication as a key reference for all teams engaged in bridge engineering.

This weighty tome has so much useful information and guidance that no bridge engineer should be far from a handy copy. It is a classic reference book covering all aspects of bridge design from concept, analysis and detailing to construction, operation and maintenance, and is very well presented. This 3rd edition includes excellent new chapters on aesthetics by K. Brownlie of BEAM Architects and on temporary works by J. Tod of Tony Gee, with other sections being updated for current practice.
