Computer program for integral abutment bridges
- Thread starter KOKONIS36
- Start date
The only one I know of is by Imbsen and Assciates. Not sure it's only for integral but both open seat and integral.
The industry standard for integral abutment design is far from complex and can be performed in a about an hour or so.

I have never done any special analysis of integral briges because bending flexibility of the abutment piles renders the abutment support a simple support for the bridge beams. For temperature, the bridge is going to move based on alpha * delta T * L. No refined analysis is going to change that.
