Design Scenarios
Typical Bridge Design Scenarios that ABES-UK Can Help Solve:
Here are some typical scenarios that our prospective customers put to us:
- We have won a bridge design competition in a seismic zone, but we do not have sufficient seismic design expertise.
- The contractor has found a problem on site and cannot build a critical element as drawn. We need a fast practical re-design, preferably by yesterday.
- We know we can save steel on the compression flanges of a proposed steel composite bridge, but we do not have the expertise to really "tweak" the bare-steel construction stages.
- We have a very long viaduct to design, and know that even very small savings on materials can make a huge difference to the overall price, and need some advice.
- We are planning a signature footbridge, and need to ensure that it is comfortable under both pedestrian and wind loadings.
- We need new high powered finite element analysis software with a proven track record in bridges, and we also need training and support to make the transition as easy as possible.
ABES-UK supply specialist bridge design consulting services and bridge design software to bridge design engineers.
