Bridges on Vertical Curve
Bridges on Vertical Curve
(OP)
Hi,
I am trying to gather some background information on the Lift and Swing Bridges and would really appreciate if you can help. Assume the bridge is on a vertical curve above a 100m wide river and the gradient of the road is changing 1% every 10 meters. In general terms;
- Is it possible to design/build such structures?
- Any advantages of one on the other?
Thanks
Murat

Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.

wouldn't a flat bridge deck be cheaper ?
