Features: This book introduces the basic theories, design ideas, construction techniques, and maintenance management technologies of bridges, and comprehensively covers common engineering problems in bridge structures, with a particular emphasis on damage diagnosis techniques for concrete bridges. Part 1 introduces the diagnosis of common bridge damage, most of which include damage cases, primarily discussing the selection of mechanical models and crack analysis and diagnosis. Part 2 focuses on the theories and methods of typical bridge inspection, primarily centered on concrete cable-stayed bridges. Starting from the significance and overview of bridge structure inspection, it emphasizes modern concrete cable-stayed bridge inspection methods and approaches. Systematically explores the inspection methods for cable-stayed bridge stay cables, anchorage zones, corrosion prevention, and other typical areas, and further investigates real-time monitoring of cable-stayed bridges. Part 3 covers bridge monitoring and damage identification. It primarily introduces bridge condition monitoring, static and dynamic damage identification of bridges, and the simulation and identification methods and approaches for cracked reinforced concrete flexural members.
