Dear Colleague
Re: Cable Supported Bridges: Design, Analysis and Construction 27-29 September 2006 at Ashurst Lodge, Ashurst, Southampton, UK
Please find details of a 3-day short course on Cable Supported Bridges: Design, Analysis and Construction by visiting our website at:
http://www.wessex.ac.uk/programmes/bridges06.html
Cable supported bridges is the common denomination for suspension and cable stayed bridges. They are one of the most challenging bridge typologies and constitute a main topic in structural engineering. They are able to span long distances and therefore are commonly used to overcome difficult crossings.
Many landmark bridges belong to this kind of structure and the finest bridge designers, present and past, have been involved in projects related to them. This course contains a comprehensive survey of the history of cable supported bridges, the state of the art of the conceptual design of each major component of the bridge.
It will also present the current methodologies for dynamic and aeroelastic analysis of this type of bridge and multidisciplinary approaches combining structural analysis and design optimization. In addition, advanced computer graphics will be described in the course.
Common construction methods will be explained and a set of videotapes showing the erection of important bridges such as Akashi, Tatara, Kurushima, Ting-Kau or Yongjong bridges are incorporated in the lectures.
This course will enable participants to:
- Obtain a general knowledge about the historical evolution of cable supported bridges.
- Be aware of the current trends in the design of towers, pylons, deck, cable systems or anchorages for this type of bridge.
- Have an overview of the common construction procedures, with emphasis in specific techniques used in important bridges such as Akashi, Tatara, Kurushima or Ting Kau bridges.
- Estimate the comparative efficiency of different structural models elaborated for these structures.
- Understand the wind loads and effects in cable supported bridges, the set of instabilities induced by wind forces, and the different approaches to carry out aeroelastic studies.
- Obtain information about several ambitious crossings projected for a near future in Europe and Asia.
The short course, presented by Prof Santiago Hernandez, and organised by the Wessex Institute of Technology, Southampton, UK, will take place on 27-29 September 2006 at Ashurst Lodge, Ashurst, Southampton, UK with a limited number of places available.
